24 page Voodoo Child story "Mason, before God and all His Saints, I tell you this is certain:..."

Synopsis In 1860, the plantation of Mason Moore, a known Unionist sympathizer, is burned to the ground by secessionists. In the battle, Moore's illegitimate son is killed, but as he gasps his last breaths, a voodoo bokor places a spell upon the dying boy. Flash forward to 2005: four months after the worst natural disaster in its history, New Orleans is gripped by fear as young girls start to disappear from its streets while a brutal gang war rages. When Detective Robert Julien starts to investigate, he finds that there's something else out in the shadows: something that's neither dead nor alive, an enigma. [per solicitation]
