Mississippi is a state of Magnolias and malignant heritage. Donald Prentiss understands this more acutely than most, having been born there as neither black nor white. As he attempts to live a white existence, because it offers more opportunities, the tentacles of his black side latch on with an urgency that gives him no peace. Unable to serve two masters, he risks death, personal ruin, and crushing emotional and financial loss, before he discovers that he doesn't have to choose. Only then does he uncover the true person within him, as well as the peace that legitimacy and authenticity always deliver.
