Publisher's Synopsis
A sixteen year old, African-American student, Brenda Mosley Pierce wants to be an opera star, but now her dreams are reduced to omens. Pregnant by her teacher, she runs away from home. Soon, she discovers her life is in danger of a maternal curse; childbirth brings life to the child and death to the mother. Time may be running out for Brenda. With little hope to live, she signs her unborn over to her estranged alcoholic sister. After giving birth, Brenda faints, and for the next three years, she remains in a coma. Finally she wakes, but she can only communicate logically through dreams. Brenda's twin daughters are born with special powers. Quadara can read people's thoughts and Shadara can heal people with her hands. Shadara marries the Pastor of their grandmother's church. Nine months later, she gives birth and faints. Has The Mosley Curse struck again, or will hope bring a brighter future to the lives of these Mosley women?
