In this reimaging of Shakespeare's classic, Gideon Prosper flees deep into the Mississippi bayou with his young daughter when his scheming brother seizes his plantation on the eve of the Civil War. Tapping into the mystical powers he learned from a slave, Gideon bides his time in exile, conjuring storms, commanding spirits, and plotting his return. But revenge may cost him everything he loves.
