"Mysticism, horror, and racial identity merge fluidly in this
thrilling tale... The suspense is tangible and the final reveal
will leave readers reeling"-Publishers Weekly, STARRED review From
groundbreaking Black author Pauline Hopkins comes an uncanny
example of classic horror, exploring identity, race, and
spirituality When medical student Reuel Briggs reluctantly attends
a performance by the beautiful singer Dianthe Lusk, he can't help
but fall for her. The very next day, their paths cross again when
Dianthe's train crashes. To bring her back from the brink of death,
Reuel draws on an eerie power he can't quite name. Soon, the two
are engaged, and Reuel sets off on an archeological expedition to
Africa to offset his debts before the wedding. But, in Ethiopia,
unexpected danger and terror force him to confront the truth about
his lineage, his power, and the disturbing history that lives in
his very blood. First serialized in Colored American Magazine in
1902, this classic fiction exemplifies Pauline Hopkins's incisive
writing and interrogates issues of race, blood, and history that
remain urgent today. This edition of Hopkins's classic horror novel
is presented by the Horror Writers Association and introduced by
award-winning author Nisi Shawl. Includes notes, biographical
information about the author, discussion questions for classroom
use, and suggested further reading.
