For the Temple women, the winds of change are blowing. And if they're not careful, it could sweep them all away... After rising from Temple servant to tea shop owner, Violet finally feels in charge of her destiny. While learning Gullah folk magic from her aging grandmother, she worries much of her cultural heritage will be lost to the grave.

With a storm of trouble brewing across the island, the Temple women will have to survive more than a force of nature to put their ghosts to rest...
