Isaura's son has been kidnapped.

His kidnappers are taking him to Huancavelica, a Peruvian mercury mine so dangerous it's known as the "Mine of Death." Her only ally is Amadi, a runaway slave haunted by guilt he refuses to explain. Her only choice is to beat the kidnappers to Huancavelica and lay a trap … assuming she can survive the mine herself.

The Black Resurrection is a standalone sequel to The Red Wraith, a historical fantasy set in Early America.
