It's no wonder their mother forbids them from getting involved with magic. When Lela and Delfi receive premonitions of a mysterious killer targeting brujas, however, the sisters must embrace their emerging powers to save innocent lives. Teaming up with their best friend Ethan and brooding detective-in-training Andres, Delfi and Lela set out to catch a murderer on a dangerous hunt that will force them to confront the dark secrets of their family's past. Meanwhile, in 1980s Cuba, Anita de Armas whispers to the spirits for mercy--not for herself, but for the victims of her mother's cult. She's desperate to rid herself of her power, which manifests as inky shadows and an ability to speak to the dead. As political tensions rise and Anita's cult initiation draws near, she must make a decision that could change not only her fate, but the fate of the nation. Lela, Delfi, and Anita's stories intertwine in a thrilling fantasy that spans oceans and generations as each woman steps into her power, refusing to be subdued by any person or curse." -- $c Provided by publisher.
