About the book
A Civil War centennial celebration, held in historical New Madrid, Missouri, where families were sharply divided, is the background for this interesting present-day story which involves serious-minded Paula Jordan and her school roommate, Lucy Crane, whom she is visiting, in a series of strange and sometimes frightening events that take place at Lucy's plantation home, Crane's Landing.
