Synopsis
The story of Ophelia Day and her fiance George Andrews is just the tip of the iceberg in MAMA DAY. Naylor narrates Ophelia's family history on the island of Willow Springs, South Carolina. Ophelia is from a matriarchal family, whose head, Miranda "Mama" Day, is something of a midwife with magical powers and a knowledge of the supernatural. Ophelia brings George to Willow Springs where, after a storm, he pragmatically sets about building a bridge to the mainland so the family won't be isolated in times of emergency. George finds he must also confront the powers of magic that run in Ophelia's family.

Publisher's Note
Miranda Day, matriarch of an island off the coast of the U.S., fights a mortal combat with dark forces that threaten her great-niece, Cocoa, who has married and gone to the mainland.
