1853 New Orleans "Flying toward the Crescent City at that moment
was the kind of storm that causes shutters to clatter, and the
shadows of gnarled oaks to bob and weave across expansive lawns. By
midnight bolts of lightning would be dancing along darkened lanes,
like skeletons frolicking at the undertaker's ball." Phantoms fly
through the haunted hallways of White Raven Estate, where nearly
all of the members of the wealthy Calais family have died following
the Yellow Fever epidemic that swept New Orleans in 1853. The
frenzied drumbeats of Voodoo ceremonies sound a staccato over the
city as slaves are bought and sold on the St. Ann Hotel slave
block. Father Vivenzio, an opportunistic New Orleans priest, with
very close ties to New Orleans' Voodoo Community scurries back and
forth from his parish to White Raven Estate where supernatural
forces thwart his attempts at skimming the riches of the estate
from the two surviving members of the Calais dynasty -- ingenue
Victoria Calais and her French-Canadian grandmother. Frustrated by
his inability to gain control over his supernatural nemesis, and
hounded by crows, and wild dogs that roam the cemetery across the
street from the Calais' Garden District estate, the priest calls on
Widow Paris - New Orleans' Mambo Queen. Destiny meets Death in a
carriage-race finish as Faith, Voodoo, and Supernatural Forces
collide during Mardi Gras 1853. Actual Voodoo Spells revealed
Action and Mystery on every page A Beautiful Mambo Queen A
Death-defying Carriage Race Revenge - served New Orleans Hot

"Lots of tension " "Well done and believable " "good attention to
the craft of writing" says Pacific Northwest Writers Association
about JENKINS: Confederate Blockade Runner. Historians in Florida
call this family saga which takes place during the Civil War, a
"Wonderful " read JENKINS: Confederate Blockade Runner is written
for every American family whose ancestors suffered through the
Civil War. Based on personal letters, Civil War era photograph
albums, and historical documents this saga tells of a Union
Confederate family whose loyalties were fragmented as the drumbeats
of war advanced. The men of the Jenkins family, their business
ambitions and political perspectives; the women of the Colburn
family, their fashions, their lifestyle, are all included in this
well-researched debut novel. Losses, loves, and loyalties play on
the reader's imagination as Ms. Hill sets the domestic scene of
what the Baltimore Sun described as "A Well-Known Family of
Baltimore's Cathedral District." Beginning in 1820s Baltimore,
Maryland JENKINS: Confederate Blockade Runner takes the reader on a
ride with Newburne's Company of Mounted Rifles, through the settler
days of Fair Haven, Vermont and along the beautiful Gulf Coast,
ravaged by the Civil War. Inspired by the photograph album of
family pictures that kept Colonel C.T. Jenkins, of the Florida
Fourth, CSA, company during his incarceration as a convicted
blockade runner, author Emily Hill, "A Civil War Lady," and current
caretaker of that album weaves a drama that is receiving high
praise from writer's conferences, Florida historians, and
historical fiction enthusiasts. Historically true to the facts,
emotionally true to the past. Included in this novel are portrayals
of Colonel Jenkins' extended family members including James Ryder
Randall, author of 'Maryland, My Maryland'; Admiral Semmes - a
cousin to Colonel Jenkins; and members of Vermont's Colburn family,
including Albert V. Colburn, a Union Officer and West Point
graduate of 1857 - and his iron-willed mother, Lucy Davey Colburn.
Genealogists will appreciate the detail and accuracy of the novel's
sweep. A dramatic, gender-inclusive saga of family history and
Civil War tragedy.
