"I just killed a man, but I'm not a murderer." He's Ray Falco, a
Washington journalist living in burnt-out seclusion until an
unnameable force--Vodoun--draws him into a murder investigation
that spans the centuries, from the Haitian revolution in 1793 to
the blood-soaked present. Falco's adventures propel him into the
world of Haitian exile politics, whose inhabitants live in a
nefarious shadowland: --Faustian Gabriel, an enigmatic art gallery
owner whose sleek exterior masks his true identity. --Carmen
Mondesir, the director of a Haitian charity whose haunted blue eyes
peer out from ebony skin, hinting at the violent contradictions
within her. --Lucy Marcelin, a beautiful Haitian-born lawyer who
guides Falco through a world few outsiders ever see. Against the
surreal backdrop of Haitian elections, where the gods of voodoo
wield more influence than the voters, these four fates
intertwine...and Ray Falco realizes that only Vodoun can save him.
"A voodoo curse turns Haitian history into a demented exercise in
deja vu- from the fevered, all-stops-out imagination behind
U.S.S.A."--Kirkus Reviews
