Author Ellen Morris Prewitt talks with Bob about her novel 'When We Were Murderous Time-Traveling Women.'

"Story is as strong as reality.

When Etoile moves to New Orleans, she leaves behind in Mississippi a childhood of loss, a host of conflicting memories, and a lot of dead people. Only one of whom perished under suspicious circumstances.

But there are rules for living in a magical city such as New Orleans. Etoile realizes this the moment she accidentally conjures a castle and a prince. And a saint. And her three ancestral grannies.

The prince is desperate to find his would-be assassin. Since murder runs in the family, Etoile and her grannies join the quest, and their often-risible, sometimes-precarious trek compels the krewe through history, family, and the inscrutable city.

As they search for the fiend, Etoile and the prince—separately and as one—regress and come of age again. Sometimes destiny arrives in a mist and lingers like the blush of good wine.

Author Ben Meeks talks about his trilogy The Keep Chronicles, which features a were-otter hunting demons in the mountains of north Georgia, the area he has called home most of his life.
