Author’s NoteLike everyplace else, Salem is changing. We have

been discovered. The beautiful new Peabody

Essex Museum has opened. The waterfront is

being renovated. Many of the old houses have

been snatched up. Salem has arrived. The Lace

Reader is set in the mid ‘90s, before the world of the

story started to change. —Brunonia Barry
