From Publishers Weekly In Confederate Florida, a healer reputed to be a witch fights her own civil war against the man she loves, in the conclusion of Graham's McKenzie Chronicles (Surrender etc.).

Denying their mutual passion, they later separate, until the heroine's extrasensory powers bring them together. Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.

When a Confederate platoon is unable to return to its Florida militia base, it camps down in an old, dilapidated plantation house

She constantly wore mourning black even while married to a very liv. A fitting conclusion to this wonderful series A Customer Life is not easy for widow Rhiannon Tremaine or for that matter most Floridians during the Civil War. In a state that voted to secede, Rhiannon staunchly believes in the Union. Her spouse fought for the Federal cause. Rhiannon suffers from the gift of the sight and observed her husband die, hearing his last words being his love for her. Opium is no
