This 18th-century novella is a mystery intertwined on the back of one old love and a new infatuation, a story of strange happenings. It opens at first with a Spanish judge's diary entry looking back at the strange events, and then a letter from the wife of the plantation owner who's accused of Treason and Murder in the superstitious judge's court in St. Augustine, Florida, at the end of the American Revolution.
The penalty of death is on the table. Flora, the accused's wife, is frantic. The man's case comes at a bad time for everyone: the American Revolution is over, the rule of Florida is being transferred from the hands of the king of England back to the king of Spain and everything's in chaos. If anyone knew Flora's true identity or what she was capable of, Caribbean law states she'd be executed herself.
What do you do when the love of your life no longer loves you and he's about to be executed?
