Windswept at Sea –Book II in the DuBois Manor trilogy.
It is now 1914; the doors of DuBois Manor are to open again welcoming a new generation. As each rusty nail is pried off the windows, brilliant light once again filters in allowing the stained glass to breathe. Remnants of the tainted past are tucked in the attic in Annabelle's beloved diaries. Dusty and mildewed, the ink will reveal all and who 'she' is.
J.W. and Teddy, sons of the DuBois dynasty, build a shipping empire launching the first American trans-Atlantic luxury liner, Windswept at Sea. Her stately beauty and majestic presence far outweigh any other ocean line of her time. The waters she sails are rarely calm so much a reflection of her owners. Her travels to Europe do not sail without conflict especially when a renowned Parisian Burlesque dancer, Ava Tryst, is on board.
Curious Charlotte and worrisome Julia, the wives of the sons, find themselves consumed in Annabelle's diaries as they reveal the frightening truth they shed. The curious pair embarks on a whirlwind journey to uncover what was best left a dark secret. Julia finds herself terrified, caught in a journey that will plunge her into an obscure cursed world she feared would destroy all those who chase it. For courageous Charlotte, it's an adventure into the abysmal swamps of Louisiana and mystery
. Having no fear of Black magic and a wicked voodoo witch, she will discover it was best to be left alone.
World War 1 interrupts this time of progress and achievement for DuBois shipping.
Temptations and reckless trysts tainted with sins of the past will haunt the family for generations to come. Not to forget, what is uncovered in the bottomless dank swamps of the Bayou will divulge the truth. Once revealed there is no going back or be free of Marta.
