Czarownica z Bostonu

The atmosphere of paranoia is so palpable, but I wonder what inspired the choices around how religion influenced the characters' actions. Was this based on real events or creative interpretation?

Her struggles for agency in a strict, oppressive society made me root for her, but also made me uneasy about her choices. How do others interpret her actions in this context?

The historical details felt so immersive and specific. I'm curious whether the author drew from particular archives or sources to craft this vivid world.
