Obeah
ByPublisher Description
On a near-future Earth decimated by plagues, two species of humanity survive—Homo sapiens and Homo gaians. When an insane gaians blames sapiens for the world's problems, only Lauren Tom will stand between him and the destruction of the remaining sapiens.
Unless she decides he's right.
***
Lauren Tom doesn't need anyone, thank you very much. She survived the Troubles that killed her father, survived her mother's disappearance ten years ago, and now she survives just fine in a cabin in the Yukon wilderness.
At 23, she's the best trapper and fisher in the area. While her neighbors appreciate her generosity, they don't warm to her. They never have. She doesn't belong. She's too different, too odd, too restless. She makes people uneasy.
Then Cade, a strange, charismatic man she once thought she loved, returns to Whitehorse. He wants her to come with him to the fabled Ben-My-Chree, a place deep in the wilderness that calls to her like a siren's song.
His return sets in motion a chain of disastrous events that will change Lauren's life forever—and may result in the destruction of the world's remaining humans.
