"Connie Goodwin ist fasziniert von den Hexenverfolgungen im Neuengland des 17.Jahrhunderts. Auch ihre Doktorarbeit befasst sich mit diesem Thema, und in den Kirchenregistern von Salem hofft sie, Originaldokumente aus jener Zeit zu finden. Bei ihren Recherchen lernt Connie den jungen Restaurator Sam kennen, der ihr prompt seine Hilfe anbietet. Doch den eigenartigsten Fund macht Connie im Haus ihrer verstorbenen Grossmutter, das in der Nähe von Salem etwas abgelegen in einem kleinen Küstenstädtchen liegt: Hier entdeckt Connie ein vergilbtes Pergament, das sie auf die Spur eines alten Buches mit sonderbaren Formeln und Rezepten bringt. Als sich Connie näher mit dem Buch beschäftigt, kommt es plötzlich zu rätselhaften Ereignissen. Offenbar wohnt den alten Rezepten eine magische Kraft inne - und das bringt nicht nur Connie, sondern auch Sam in höchste Gefahr... (Quelle: Umschlagtext)." . . . .
