A handsome prince, a powerful magic ring and a shrewd sorceress form a triangle of suspense and drama. Readers will travel back in time to a magnificent African kingdom of long, long ago. Two strangers are welcomed into the heart of this beautiful kingdom. The queen senses danger. When the prince suddenly disappears, turmoil follows. In a cruel twist of fate, the further the prince travels away from the kingdom the safer it becomes. The prince will find himself in a faraway land, trapped behind a cave wall, caught in a spell of shifting grayness and gloom.
Timberance, born in America in the late 1800's, is a sensitive and beautiful African-American maiden. Ridiculed and teased because of someone's jealousy, Timberance leads a painfully lonely life. Her only escape is found through books and exploring an old woman's mansion that is filled with antique curios, hidden doors and secret passageways. After school, on a dreary and cold autumn day, Timberance enters a cave many believe is haunted. She will find something more chilling than a ghost or the blustery autumn wind when she stumbles upon a frightening secret that was meant to remain hidden in stone forever.
Enchantments, fairy magic and a cruel curse prove no match against the fulfillment of human compassion, heart-felt laughter and true friendship in the captivating and wondrous story of The Prince & Timberance.
