Description

LaTanya McQueen's When the Reckoning Comes is a haunting and uncomfortable read that will leave you breathless. The novel's exploration of the past's lasting impact on the present is both thought-provoking and unsettling. Mira's return to her hometown for a plantation wedding serves as a catalyst for confronting the dark history of the land and the friends she left behind. As Mira reconnects with her past, she must face the terrifying memories she thought she'd left behind. The Woodsman plantation, once a symbol of oppression, remains a powerful and haunting presence, its history and horrors still palpable. The author masterfully weaves together themes of racism, trauma, and the supernatural to create a narrative that is both deeply unsettling and impossible to look away from. With its atmospheric setting and unflinching portrayal of the past's ongoing influence on the present, When the Reckoning Comes is a novel that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.
