This book has been carefully adapted following the prequel,
which you really need to be acquainted with: “No Vengeance!
No Voodoo!” The well-known phrases and metaphors are kept in
addition to the scenes and imagery to direct to the heart of the story.
Eventually, Kootan was too young to convince Kitibel that voodoo
was not the way to go; he had to wait until she passed away to
persuade her daughter, Briane not to follow her Mom’s footstep. A
bond was formed between the two. If Briane ever comes to terms
with such bonded agreement, he promises to marry her but, under the
following two conditions: to reject voodoo’s doctrine and join him
in eradicating this cancer that is terrifying Hispaniola’s Island.
