Bridget O'Keefe has her entire life planned down to the last detail. She'll complete a three-year contract with the small town of Lacrimas, North Carolina and wipe out the enormous school debts she incurred to become a physician. Afterwards, she'll have her pick of any genetics lab in the country for full time research. She doesn't need any personal entanglements with the Harkers, a strange and reclusive family who own a thirty-mile section of swampland near Lacrimas. Little by little, they pull her into their lives and into a mystery that stretches back to the Lost Colony of Roanoke Island and the mists of prehistory where myths and legends walked hand in hand with humanity.
After 29 & 1/2 years of experience as a bilingual (Spanish/English)caseworker, Ms. Karmazin took early retirement from her day job in order to write full time.
Ms. Karmazin utilizes a unique blend of multicultural knowledge for her Science Fiction. When she was seven, she read George MacDonald's "The Light Princess" and became an avid reader of Science Fiction and Fantasy. She incorporates the same sense of adventure and wonder to her SF stories. Barbara was willing to write about all versions of sexuality, both human and alien, while maintaining a fast paced SF/Fantasy and Paranormal Erotica and Romance adventure plot that will leave you gasping in more ways than one.
