Moody and atmospheric, this book immerses the reader in the quirky and bizarre world of Savannah Georgia during the events leading up to the murder of a young gigolo, and the subsequent trial of Jim Williams, the prominent society member who committed the act. Though this book is nonfiction, it reads like a novel with a terrific cast of characters. These include the Lady Chablis – a black drag queen, Minerva – the voodoo priestess whose activities give the book its title, an antiques dealer with issues…. This page- turner is an absorbing modern gothic.
