A voodoo priestess is found drowned in the Louisiana swamps-mouth full of salt, hands posed in ritual death. Her niece knows it was no accident.
In the isolated bayou of 1830s Louisiana, Émeline Batiste prepares her aunt's body the old voodone way-candles lit, herbs ground, salt laid thick. Raised in the spiritual traditions passed down through Creole women, she knows when a death speaks. And this one screams.
When a wounded fugitive washes ashore with a salt-bound mark tied to her family's forbidden ledger, Émeline is thrust into a dark conspiracy of ancestral magic, generational debt, and buried power. Someone has stolen the sacred grimoire. Someone is rewriting the past. And voodone is no longer just a tradition-it's a threat.
As Émeline searches for answers, the swamp begins to stir with old power. The salt keeps score. And some names were never meant to be forgotten.
By Her Blood is a Southern Gothic fantasy steeped in Creole folklore, voodoo mysticism, and historical mystery-perfect for fans of Conjure Women, The Water Dancer, and Let Us Descend. For readers who crave enemies-to-lovers tension, sacred inheritance, and heroines who refuse to forget what was taken.
