The pale-skinned, black-eyed baby is a bad omen. Thats one thing the people on the old plantation are sure of. The other is that Miss Rue will know what to do. But for once Rue doesnt know. Times have changed since her mother held the power to influence the life and death of her fellow slaves. Freedom has come and this new world brings new dangers, and Rues old magic may be no match for them.
