Lucy Aimes has always been practical. But try as she might, she can’t come up with a logical explanation for the recurring dreams that have always haunted her. Dark dreams. Dreams of a long-ago place filled with people she shouldn’t know…but does.
When her family moves to a New Orleans plantation, Lucy’s dreams become more intense, and her search for answers draws her reluctantly into the old city’s world of Voodoo and mysticism. There, Lucy finds Alex, a mysterious boy who behaves as if they’ve known each other forever. Lucy knows Alex is hiding something, and her rational side doesn’t want to be drawn to him. But she is.
As she tries to uncover Alex’s secrets, a killer strikes close to home, and Lucy finds herself ensnared in a century-old vendetta. With the lives of everyone she loves in danger, Lucy will have to unravel the mystery of her dreams before it all comes to a deadly finish.
That's it, you and me Voodoo, are breaking up. I'm done. I
give up trying to find a good Voodoo book. You win, YA.
We were promised a Murder mystery, there wasn't much of one.
Century-old vendetta? I'll give you that, though what was the reason of the
vendetta? Deadly finish? Nope. You'd think it would be intense and dark and
scary with Vooodoo and all, but it didn't feel like danger or anything.
