The sudden death of her mother prompts a beautiful young woman to return to the Cajun birthplace she'd abandoned as a teenager, and hoped never to see again. Back in the bayou, she renews her relationship with her former lover while trying to come to grips with her mysterious Creole heritage. But when la fantome noir--the dark spirit that haunts the bayou--appears in the swamps, she is called to battle, and must find the powerful Fire Opal--which is her only hope for survival. Together, she and her former lover must embark into uncharted swamp waters to recover the magical talisman...and perhaps rekindle their lost love.
Connie Flynn has the knack of taking an obvious fantasy and turning it into a believable tale that readers will think could occur in the real world. Her latest supernatural romance, THE FIRE OPAL, is a brilliant example of Ms. Flynn's uncanny ability to take the unreal and make it real. The story line is a first rate romance blended inside a frightening plot, proving once again that no one makes the para-world seem more like a perfectly normal occurrence than the fantastic Flynn.
