Plantation

By J.L. Whitehead

Darcy County, Georgia holds a secret...a dark, terrible secret. Scores of its citizens have vanished in plain sight, never to be seen or heard from again. Drake, his sister Indigo, and their brother Tarek are making one final trip to what used to be their homestead to say goodbye to memories that they shared only to find themselves emersed in the "New South" where slavery is carefully hidden on plantations judiciously scattered throughout the states of Georgia, Florida, South Carolina, and Alabama.

After the family is abducted on a seemingly innocent carriage ride through a replica of an 1800's version of Darcy County; Drake, Indigo and Tarek find themselves fighting slavery and it's brutal effects.

As they encounter characters that want to stay in their life of servitude as well as ones that want to escape, they meet an unlikely ally in "The Lady Onyx"; a transgender woman who practices witchcraft. It isn't until their meeting that they realize that they are neck-deep in a coven of witches immersed in Darcy County.

"Plantation" tells the story of an integrated family's attempts to escape brutal beatings, lynching, rapes, back-breaking labor, and dark magic. Who will make it home safely with their minds and bodies intact?

"Plantation" is "Antebellum" with a deliciously dark twist.
