The Hands that Treat (The Oubre Sisters #1)

Ophelia lives unaware of the mystical world that simmers beneath the cracked streets and soddened earth of the Crescent City.

The mysteries and magical gifts of her community are unveiled by her grandmother when Ophelia assumes the role as her family’s next Traiteur.

Derived from the French word traiter (“to treat”), Traiteurs are Cajun healers with the unique ability to heal ailments through magic.

Once she embraces her treating gift, an exciting and enchanting world opens to Ophelia, and she is quick to embrace it. But darkness lurks.

Ophelia is shaken when a serial killer begins murdering citizens at random, leaving behind cryptic messages written in blood. She has the distinct feeling that she’s somehow connected to the murders.

Ophelia must uncover her relation to the murders, but she’s faced with obstacles and dead ends at every turn.

Her journey to truth leads her through painful heartache, mind-numbing lust and a love she’s never known before
