"Sensuous. Frightening. A fantastical journey into a culture few explore." -- The Brilliant Review When an American humanitarian embarks on a mission to Haiti in the hopes of lending financial support to a local orphanage, her curiosity about some of the residents opens doors best left closed. Finding herself immersed in a frightening and unfamiliar culture of Voodoo and black magic, Tracy must learn to trust the unseen, the unknowable and the miraculous in order to discover the truth about Jérémie, Haiti and those who dwell there. "Mowry's novel is compelling and sensuous, visionary and authentic, balancing tenderness with brutality and compassion with obsession. Written in prose that's both flexible and controlled, it's a novel full of contrasting parts, commonplace miracles, Voodoo and the bright colors of death. But in Mowry's moonlit wasteland, the power of redemption is equal to the devastation it inflicts." --Clarence Major, author of "Dirty Bird Blues" |
