Adeyemi leads a band of rebel Maroons in the mountains of eighteenth-century Haiti, but one by one, his men are found dead—bitten on their necks and drained of blood. Is the murderer an evil spirit? An animal? Or are the killings somehow related to the eight strangers that arrived from France on a ship where nearly all of the crew are dead?
Debra lives in a little house in the woods with her three sons, and a Noah's ark of four legged family members. She drives a gigantic diesel SUV, couldn't carry a tune if you duct taped it to her back, and enjoys an occasional cosmopolitan (heavy on the vodka). On a good day, she jogs and horseback rides, hopefully managing to keep the horse between herself and the ground. Her only known super power is 'Identify Roadkill'.
