Bobbie, a bright, inquisitive, cute, 11-almost-12-year-old annoying pest who never sits still and can’t shut up, is thrilled to be at a Long Island summer camp. Then, she meets her roommates: three ultra-sophisticated teenagers who are not at all happy about sharing their room with this creature who bounces around like some kind of zany pixie.

Bobbie doesn’t believe the Southern attitude toward people of color applies to her Northern world. Phillis lived in Mississippi and endured the worst effects of racial hatred, generating a mind filled with fear, distrust, bitterness, and anger. Friends when they were five years old, the two reunite in a late 1950s Long Island high school.

Boston, 1846. Eighteen-year-old Mildred Parish, a barber's daughter, practices practical witchcraft using locks of hair obtained from her father's customers. She's very selective about who knows her secret and the kinds of spells she casts. Only people she trusts can know, and she must never cast a spell to harm another person. One of her father's clients is Theodore O'Brian, an Irish immigrant whose family is fortunate enough to be wealthy. Mildred is head over heels in love with him, but he's destined to be with someone else.
