Publisher's summary

It was 1905, in New Orleans, three years after Earl’s family escaped the KKK in Mississippi.

People thought Betty Jones, a brothel madam, was a witch because of her bright blue eyes when she was young. Betty assumes the role of elder to Earl’s daughter Linda. Linda is like a sponge!

Betty and Linda want to create a business no black person had ever tried, requiring a complex dangerous scheme just to get started. Failure would place both of them in harm’s way.

Linda’s brother, Charlie, abandons his family to find respect but only creates enemies when he dares to cross the color barrier.

But something was coming that only the lady with blue eyes could have seen. Can she get Linda ready in time?

A captivating thriller with appealing characters, amazing heroes, heroines villains, and a suggestion of mystic-like intervention as the suspense and story evolve.
