Solomon Kane: Suffer The Witch

Summary

Solomon Kane journeys back to England to save a woman accused of witchcraft and murder. Kane must find the true culprits while battling the town’s paranoia and superstition.

A middle-aged Solomon Kane has been summoned back to England to help a childhood friend, Catherine Archer. In the wake of several grisly deaths, Catherine’s friend Sybil has been charged with employing witchcraft to commit these murders. She faces execution. Though his body isn’t what it once was, Kane’s mind is as sharp as ever. He deduces that Sybil is indeed a witch but perhaps not a murderous one.

Later, Kane experiences horrific nightmares and witnesses the latest gruesome death. He manages to stop a baying mob from lynching Sybil but in doing so becomes a target of the paranoid villagers himself. Sympathetic, Kane wants to help these fearful villagers. He soon learns that profane creatures are really behind the murders. After a lifetime of fighting evil, the puritan has lost a step, but he will do everything in his power to battle the ancient force that threatens the town’s existence.
