Brown Girl In The Ring by Nalo Hopkinson
The rich and the privileged have fled the city, barricaded it behind roadblocks, and left it to crumble. The inner city has had to rediscover old ways -- farming, barter, herb lore. But now the monied need a harvest of bodies, and so they prey upon the helpless of the streets. With nowhere to turn, a young woman must open herself to ancient truths, eternal powers, the tragic mystery surrounding her mother and grandmother. She must bargain with gods, and give birth to new legends.
Nalo Hopkinson has published a number of short stories and is the author of three novels including The Salt Roads, Brown Girl in the Ring, and Midnight Robber. She is also the award-winning author of the short fiction collection Skin Folk.
