The center of the story is the beautiful, unconquerable witch Merrick.  She is a descendent of the   gens de couleur libres, a society of New Orleans octoroons and quadroons steeped in the lore and the ceremony of voodoo, who reigned in the shadowy world where African and French -- the dark and the white --intermingled.  Her ancestors are the great Mayfair Witches, of whom she knows nothing -- and from whom she inherits the power and the magical knowledge of a Circe.
