Secret Place of ThunderOfficial book summery.A disturbing letter from her great-aunts has brought Cheney Duvall to their indigo plantation outside of New Orleans, but what she and Shiloh Irons discover is much more serious and dangerous than they imagined. A West Indies cult has begun performing their rituals and rites on a high knoll just across the bayou from the plantation, and warnings are sent that La Maison des Chattes Bleues is on "spirit ground" and the aunts must leave. When the aunts refuse to leave, the cult�s priestess announces that she has put a curse on them and their property. Shortly afterward, some of the servants and sharecroppers begin to suffer from a mysterious illness, and the new indigo crop seems to fail. Cheney and Shiloh and the rest of the family and friends must find out why the cult is suddenly so interested in Les Chattes Bleues. But every attempt to protect Cheney�s great-aunts only leads to increasing hostility from the cult. Soon they are afraid they may be in grave danger. When Devlin Buchanan suddenly arrives and discovers Cheney�s friend Victoria de Lancie is a houseguest at Les Chattes Bleues, unexpected complications begin. How does Victoria truly feel about the handsome young doctor? Is Devlin finally prepared to make his choice between her and Cheney?
By Lauren, aka Elven Princess of the Sea After reading it over again, I liked this book more. The voodoo was particularly interesting. This novel also told some history about the de Cheyne family. I especially liked the pairing of Victoria and Dev. This book also had a bit more humorous things in it, such as Gowan Ford @#%$ about how Tante Elyse would give the driver two extra dollars because she thinks money is only paper with printing on it. "Well, what else is it, exactly?" Shiloh asks. This book really grew on me even though I didn't like it at first as much as I had the others.
