Tammy Pierre is called upon to help solve a murder that appears to involve Obeah -
a form of voodoo practiced in Trinidad.
Her father's Trinidadian roots give the police reason to bring her in, but a black candle ritual offers little else to go on. Then, as one after another victim is found, their only connection leads her to the island, a convent once used as an orphanage, and the strange figure then known as Sister Constance. On her return to London, Tammy keeps digging, despite warnings and an intimidating surveillance of her apartment. And not all the killings fit the ritual pattern. Can she find the killer, or killers, before someone makes good on the threats? Early reader praise:
