"Narrator Janina Edwards's compelling tone draws listeners into Wilson's searing narrative as a family reckons with a supernatural legacy.... A stark and enduring listen, well told and unforgettable." (AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award winner)
Scant years after the Civil War, a mysterious family confronts the legacy that has pursued them across centuries, out of slavery, and finally to the idyllic peace of the town of Rosetree. The shattering consequences of this confrontation echo backwards and forwards in time, even to the present day.
"There’s so much here to appreciate and admire, fine storytelling with a clearly-realized setting and characters." (Locus)

Throughout the story, the author's father interjects, sharing his knowledge of crimes committed against people of color, showing how historical evils continue in the present day. Wilson's tale is multilayered, requiring engagement and thoughtfulness from the reader to comprehend and to take away their own meanings.
Beautifully written and devastating
