Synopsis: The Bayou, where the temptation to sin is as overpowering as the heat. Where four generations of the Leblanc dynasty bear the curse of unbridled power over the bodies and souls of the slaves, Where the Leblanc men and women pursue their forbidden lusts in exotic octoroon balls, opulent New Orleans salons and sweltering marshlands...Where Carita Leblanc, the ravishing new plantation mistress, uncovers the secret world of mixed blood and deep-seeded guilt and is driven to an act of unspeakable violence, hurling this once proud family into scandal, ruin and murder.
