Synopsis:
It’s 1900 in remote Wyoming, where a smart young siren in human form falls into
a trap. Because of a curse, her lover may die if she acts on her
passionate instincts.
Blurb/Description: The
novel is a new take on
speculative fiction, treating real coming-of-age issues of choice for modern
young women and meanwhile weaving a cautionary tale of paranormal romance and
terror set in the distant past.
This is the story of a
group of sirens, told in part by the ghost of the main character, Cassandra.
The sirens are creatures who are part human but who have strange powers and
skills. Cassandra’s love life in the Old West results in a curse which passes
down the generations.
A family of paranormal
women, an ancient lineage of sirens in human form, are threatened by
extinction, unless Marlena, the youngest, carries her pregnancy to term in
1977. Cassandra, the siren ghost, tells Marlena her own story, how back
in 1900 in Wyoming, she followed her passion rather than a code of human
values. Falling into a trap, she brought on the family curse
and disaster. Now the men loved by the sirens face an untimely end.
