(3) YA This is a fast-paced tale pairing the mounting tension of racial conflict in coastal Mississippi during the summer of 1969 with the approach of Hurricane Camille. Newly arrived from Haiti, sixteen-year-old Ruba is mystified by the religious and racial restrictions she finds; her training in the powerful magic of the African Dahomey women bewilders her new community, too. Historical notes are appended. Reading list.
