Synopsis
When a prank goes wrong, Alaine Beauparlantfinds herself shipped off to her parent's homeland of Haiti and unpacking family secrets, Haitian history, and a possible curse...
What Alaine learns about Haiti's proud heritage as the world's first Black republic, and it's even prouder people, is one thing. But what she learns about her own family legacy is another.
Alaine's often-absent journalist mom has kept heartbreaking news from her. And when Alaine discovers the curse that has plagued her relatives for generation may be behind the secret, she's determined to do whatever it takes to break it. The betrayals and superstitions that she uncovers are inextricably tied to the island nation's past, but their reverberations stretch far into Alaine's future.
It's a race against the clock to reverse the centuries-old madichon... but if anyone can do it, it's Alaine.
