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.

My Review
A fantastic short read.
This story is about friendships and bonds that cannot be broken. Sandra,
Frankie and Candice each have magical abilities. I loved how each of them
viewed and acted on their abilities in different ways. The weakness of one is strength
in another. And I have to say that I am getting more and more into inked up
characters and really enjoyed Calvin’s character and how he helps Sandra and
Frankie find Candice. A great heartwarming story, I enjoyed each and every page
and look forward to reading more from this author.
Excerpt 1
Sandra leaned against the door
frame, reached into her low-rider jeans’ back pocket and produced an envelope.
She passed the folded paper to her. Frankie stared at the picture, reading the
words: Child Find, Missing; young female seventeen, eyes hazel, brown hair,
height 5’7”, weight 120.
“How could you keep this from
me?” she asked, tightening her grip on the envelope.
“I didn’t. Yesterday, my mom
received her Visa bill. She gave me the envelope when she saw Candice’s
picture. I phoned her parents. They are in the middle of a divorce. Her mom
said when they first split, she began to stay out late. Then one day she just
never came home.”
“We have to find her. The police
haven’t been able to,” Frankie said, waving the envelope.
“We will do what we must do to
track her. Did you bring your cards?”
“Yes.”
“Come with me,” she said,
grabbing her hand. She dragged her into the dish room stopping to retrieve her
Tarot deck from the pocket of her jean jacket.
