Have you ever dreamed and woken in screams? Do the dreams seem so real they take your breath away? Lucy has had the dreams for as long as she can remember. The new move to Louisiana seems to ignite the dreams and sleep seems to elude her many nights. When she meets Alex on a tour of the plantation grounds where she and her family have moved she seems to already know him. He is so familiar and her heart stirs. Put your seatbelt on and take a journey into the secret voodoo culture and spiritual world of Louisiana. Meet Mama Legba, the modern day witch as she tries to help Lucy navigate the world of the living and the world of the dead. (Prepared by: Wendy S.
