Synopsis:
By the use of divination and magic, some ties can never be severed.
In the beginning, by the light of the Full Moon, Frankie connects with Candice's energy through dream time and witnesses her involvement in a terrifying act of violence. After receiving information from Sandra that their childhood friend is missing, they pack their bags and head to the inner city to find her.
Frankie, afraid for her own safety, has a chance encounter with a local named Calvin who is plugged into what's happening. Using his workable ideas—as well as Frankie and Sandra consulting tarot, ordinary playing cards, astrology, and spell-casting—they set forth to free Candice from the dangerous situation she is in.
Excerpt
Sandra sat on the edge of the bed, and then stood. She retrieved her tarot deck; Frankie, her playing cards. Each held their deck face down in one hand and covered with their other hand. The two paused to become calm and centered. While they shuffled their deck in unison they spoke, “Spirit Guide, reveal to me, am I carrying out the right action in finding Candice? Please reveal to me that which will be, one…two…three…”
Calvin relaxed on the couch. He watched them, listened as he attempted to take in what they were doing. Suddenly, the ceiling light blinked on, then off. He felt the room chill. He looked upward and could see an orb shine in a rich glow float through the window. He didn’t know what to think. He just stared at it, and said not a word. He observed the orb brilliant and illuminating quietly with slow glide of movements move through the room and then descend. He became alert to the sparkles of white and gold orb presence transform. He could barely make out the faint image of an older woman. Her aged hair in a tight bun dressed in a long billowing cotton coat float between Sandra and Frankie. He watched in disbelief as she transformed back into a barely there visible orb.

Favorite Line "She’s finally free.”
Frankie and Sandra find out there childhood friend Candice is missing and the must find her. The are witches who use tarot cards to guide them in the journey. Candice is really messed up! She's stripping, using drugs, and being beaten by her pimp.
Anyone who has had any kind of history with drugs will be touched by this story, it's sad but, this scene happens more and more every day. I admire the author for taking this risk. I wish it would have a little more feelings but, I think that's me not understanding the around the tarot cards and spirits. Time and time again children from broken homes turn to drugs and this author really captioned what drugs do to someone, not only there body but, there mind.
It's a touching read!
I was given book in exchange for honest review. (RBTL)
