Mehwish Zanzibari Heiress Mehwish Shumaila bin Said al-Murgebi murdered her grandmother to retrieve an ancient Grimoire that had been authored in hell. Without a backward glance, she boarded her future husband's ship bound for the Americas with the book of black majick tucked inside her reticule. Mehwish's destiny was a dark and twisted one that would lead her to the infamous Magnolia Hill Plantation where she would be forced to endure a life unlike anything she could ever have imagined-or feared. Flossie A new kind of evil took up residence on Magnolia Hill upon the arrival of the Zanzibari witch. Flossie, the plantation cook, midwife, and Obeah conjure woman knew evil when she saw it. It was in that witch's pitch-black eyes when Flossie stole her coveted book of black majick, knowing the witch would gladly kill her and her remaining descendants to have it back.
