About this listen

Massachusetts Bay colony. A year of rain, a year of plagues, blighted rye, stillbirths, miscarriages, and death. The events are called the devil’s work, witchcraft, unholy, unnatural...

In the town of Greenwood, in the year 1680, the line between miracle and mystery and between magic and medicine is blurred beyond all distinction. In this year of misfortune, four outcasts - a vilified midwife, her child apprentice, a barren woman, and an unloved daughter - find their fates inextricably entwined.

At the heart of longing lies the root of scarcity.
