The experiments are working! Etta is starting see the effects that the mysterious flowers that dot the landscape around the Meridian Fellowship can have on rabbits, and her benefactors are urging her to start testing her theories on human beings. She isn’t sure which terrifies her more: the potential consequences of such dangerous actions, or the agony of not knowing what amazing things her formulas could do for her fellow man.
Yet, the more she thinks she understands how the science works, the less she comprehends the influence the otherworldly forces that fuel her experiments is having over her own life.

Etta’s research is taking her to some strange places, but she’s also starting to see results—even if it’s not always the results she expected or even hoped for. Part of this could be down to that even though she is seeking a connection to the women in her family who preceded her, the land that they once worked—and that she now finds herself exploring—has a much darker history it would rather stay a secret than allow to be celebrated or exposed. The only trouble is, the more Etta uncovers, the more she is determined to find out.

Etta has arrived at the Meridian Fellowship and immediately begins taking advantage of their facilities. Only, the strange history of the place begins preying on her mind. The people she has met all offer a glimpse of a different kind of life, but the natural world around her hints at something primal and ancient. Her dreams have already begun to change, showing her the strange wonders that await. Only the kindly Solomon grounds her, giving her fair warning of what she may be about to encounter, but also suggesting that her mother’s pendant may be her connection to the cosmos.
Undeterred, Etta begins her experiments, looking to unlock the secrets of her mother’s teachings–but what is revealed is beyond what even she has imagined.

At the turn of the 20th century, a young Black woman named Etta picks up the tradition of her late mother for creating special medicines using natural ingredients and secrets handed down from generation to generation. Her mother has passed on a book of recipes and formulas, but it’s also full of strange symbols and dark musings that she doesn’t quite understand. Within her community, one of the problems she hopes to fix is counteracting the poisonous and abrasive solutions Black women and girls are sold for straightening their hair. So, when the Meridian Fellowship reaches out and offers her a spot at their institute in Savannah, GA, to use their facilities to do her research, Etta jumps at the chance. She packs up her mother’s book and heads to the sprawling establishment, but what she finds is a place surrounded by natural wonders that may point the way to understanding the more mysterious parts of her mother’s work…if dark forces don’t claim her first.
