Convent - Inception by Kerri Stoner PB

Book One of the CONVENT series.

Convent is a debut work of historical fantasy from author Kerri Stoner, exploring the world of witchcraft in New Orleans across both a modern and colonial timeline. The story begins following Mac LeBlanc, in modern times, on a journey through motherhood that evolves into a spiritual awakening as she learns she’s a witch through her roots as a native New Orleanian. In the process, she finds a support system amongst some wayward women whom Mac manages to unite. Almost three hundred years prior, we meet Camille LeBlanc, a twelve-year-old girl with “gifts” traveling with the Ursuline Nuns from Rouen, France, to New Orleans. We get a glimpse of the origins of the female community in colonial New Orleans and the Ursuline Nuns that built it, with a magical twist. Convent is a cocktail mixed with a shot of magic, a splash of mystery, and a dash of humor. All garnished with historical fiction and the imagined truths that were forgotten. “Laissez le bon temp rouler” - Let the good times roll!
