ISBN: 9781616951795.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIs witchcraft or revenge to blame when men from a remote Hungarian village start dropping dead?\nTeenage Saris smart, inquisitive nature would be enough to make her an outcast in her remote Hungarian village; add to that her knowledge of healing herbs, and shes widely considered a witch.\n\nWhen the men leave to fight World War I, however, everything changes. Without their oppressive and often abusive husbands and boyfriends, the women at last taste freedom and independence, and Sari makes friends. She and a number of other women in the village even begin relationships with injured Italian POWs housed nearby. Swept up in an intellectual and passionate love affair with a university professor, Saris mind and body awaken for the first time in her life.\n\nWith the wars end, the men of the village return. Saris freedom--and her newfound friendships--are imperiled. But just as Sari knows the herbs that will heal, she knows as well those that will kill. It takes several weeks for the arsenic, sprinkled her fiancés food, to finish him off. The first poisoning leads to another, and then another. Based on a true story, this novel shows how a good person can be led to evil, and how a community can come together to conceal unspeakable crimes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Soho Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45792189972533,"sku":"ByrdShop_1616951796","price":64.45,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781616951795_96c618da-fec8-45c7-bc86-ed1f4f52492d.jpg?v=1784768519","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-angel-makers-9781616951795","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
