Chain Dance

The Third Book of Joy: Chain Dance is the second notebook of family lore, the collection of Joys magical stories about her enslaved ancestors, researched by Professor Bo Wolfson in Burning Streams; the first notebook was published in Blood of Angels. When Heavens heartbroken death in childbirth and Whip Mans torture at her fathers hands lead her to resurrect herself as a death dancer, magic and terror drive the plantations owner off of his land. Most of the men and women who labor on the haunted plantation flee, following Heavens brother to his Louisiana swampland.But not everyone runs. A winged angel, a dancing coven of witches, a shapeshifting wildcat, and a ferocious pack of werewolves defend Solaces plantation from attack. Marauding patrollers and opportunists clash with the cunning, the blood thirst, and the supernatural powers unleashed by women determined to free themselves and the men and children they love.
