How can you tell if a river's under a spell? River trolls, rock
trolls, blue-wing fairies--the usual suspects. The stretch of the
Mississippi where Claire lives has rumors of them all, not that
she's ever spotted any. But then Claire's cousin Duke takes a swim
and sprouts a horn--a long, pointy, handsome thing. After that,
Claire doesn't have much choice but to believe that something
rivery is going on, especially since she's the only one who can
help Duke lose his new addition.
Three warnings for readers who hate surprises: 1. Beware of
slivers, 2. and gamblers, 3. and aces.
Zebulon Crabtree found all that out the hard way back in 1849 when
his mother and father shipped him off to St. Louis to apprentice
with a tanner. Too bad he had serious allergies to fur and advice
from his parents. Hearing the beat of a different drummer, Zeb
takes up with a riverboat gambler who has some special plans for
him, crosses paths with a slave who turns out to be a better friend
than cook, and learns that some Indian medicine men can see even
though blind. And then there's the Brotherhood--the one that Zeb
can't seem to get out of . . . Lucky for us, the price of living in
turbulent times is often a good story, and Zeb spins an
unforgettable one.
