An engrossing multicultural, multilayered mystery of one woman's obsession with another woman's husband that could only end in disaster. Maggi French is a film star on the rise. She has everything but the one thing she wants most, her lover, real estate mogul and studio owner Kurt Wilder. She knows a lot about Voodoo and means to keep using it to make her lust for power and her obsessive need to marry Kurt come true. The many people she has hurt don't matter if she gets what she wants. But someone was hurt too badly and strikes back with vengeance. Could it have been her lover, Kurt? Then there is the lead detective on Maggi's case, Detective Lieutenant Frank Ryman. You could say he knew her intimately and hated her. But he has his own entanglements with his lover, beautiful assistant district attorney Jaysa Rhine. The Maggi French case is one of the strangest and most baffling murders he has ever tried to solve -- the roots lead all the way back to Port au Prince, Haiti. In the end the detective is accused by her lover of killing Maggi. Did Frank lose his head in a moment of rage? Even he knows it could have happened.
