Flora and Henry were born a few blocks from each other, innocent
of the forces that might keep a white boy and an African American
girl apart; years later they meet again and their mutual love of
music sparks an even more powerful connection. But what Flora and
Henry don't know is that they are pawns in a game played by the
eternal adversaries Love and Death, here brilliantly reimagined
as two extremely sympathetic and fascinating characters. Can their
hearts and their wills overcome not only their earthly circumstances,
but forces that have battled throughout history?
