Book description
Along with the sweltering heat of the Mississippi pine barrens, the
summer of 1963 brings intruders to Kali Oka Road: The Blood of the
Redeemer churchers, members of a secretive religious sect, and Nadine
Andrews, a single woman of marrying age more interested in her horses
than starting a family.
Both threaten the predictable sameness of this rural, tightly knit
community. And both provide irresistible temptation for
thirteen-year-old Bekkah Rich, who is willing to risk hell fire in her
efforts to spy on the newcomers.
But then her best friend's baby sister disappears, surrounding Bekkah
in a web of kidnapping and murder. Suddenly, summertime antics become
deadly serious, and those who were once a curiosity are now tainted
with evil.
