Summary As babies, twin sisters Charlie Yates and Magnolia Heathwood were separated after their parents, a mixed race couple, were lynched. Now, at the beginning of the Civil Rights Movement, Charlie lives in Harlem with her grandmother while white-passing Magnolia is in rural Georgia and knows nothing of her racial heritage. When she learns the truth, her reflection disappears from mirrors--the sign of a curse. Meanwhile, the girls' grandmother becomes ill and her last wish is to be buried back home in Georgia. Thus, Charlie and Magnolia finally meet as teenagers in a haunted town and find they must work together to break the curse.
