Synopsis

Living in seclusion near the bay shores of a small Mississippi Gulf Coast town, famous musician, Rick Clayton begins to have nightmares about an enchanting woman from his past, and shares his anxieties with his new wife, Abby. Although puzzled by her husband's memories of the mysterious woman, Abby is more intrigued than threatened. As time passes, she believes this woman from Rick's past and her illusive aunt are one and the same. But she knows this could not be because the woman would have to be over a hundred years old. In 1898 New Orleans a nineteen-year-old Creole socialite, Marcelite LeBlanc, who is the secret daughter of a voodooiene priestess, falls in love with a prominent European artist. They are forced to part because of the times, their conflicting backgrounds, and a voodoo curse. Three small rings keep the hope that they will one day be together. Their destinies become intertwined with individuals from the future when Abby and her three middle-aged friends, Anakarin, Charleen and Jonyne-characters from the author's two previous books, Fantastic Stranger and No More Tears in Heaven-find old letters kept by Jonyne's deceased grandmother. Realizing Marcelite may still be alive, the four women dig further to solve the bittersweet mystery.
