Leaves from the Forbidden Magnolia: Lucinda Messalina's Fall from Grace A 

~  Tale of Love, Lust and Revenge: Literary Fiction '

In the aftermath of the Civil War, a proper Southern woman rebels against the morality policing of her times and tastes the forbidden fruits of love across the line of race.

 Lucinda M finds herself tormented by the hounds of racial injustice where she least expects it. In Harlem, New York, one man is jailed and another is dead as she battles a maelstrom of love, lust and revenge. 

Will the light of redemption ever break through the darkness of post-war America?

 Is serenity even possible in a world torn by so much ignorance? 

Will Lucinda find her way out of the descent into darkness?
