      Voodoo Island

      VOODOO ISLAND

      Haiti is an island where people do not always die – they only sleep. Voodoo can bring dead people back to life. Voodoo can speak to the spirits of all things, alive or dead. Voodoo is the magic of Haiti. There are still people, today, who use voodoo magic to speak to the dead. Or perhaps you don’t believe in magic … ?

      This is a story about the fight between the old world and the new world. James Conway wants to bring the new world to Haiti. He wants to build new houses, shops, and hotels. Most of all, he wants to make money. Kee is an old man who understands and loves the old world. Kee has very little money; he is not an ‘important’ person in the new world. But Kee understands people. Kee understands James Conway better than James Conway understands himself. And Kee understands voodoo.
