About the book

Whether fact or fiction, the supernatural world of obeah is entwined into Jamaican life. In this collection of short stories centred on the practice of obeah, Brailsford delves into its traditions, spells, rituals and amulets, which are said to have the power to bring forth numerous misfortunes and even death. However, some of these tales reveal that these unexplainable incidents can be rationalised with common sense.
