With New Orleans as their destination, Cheney Duvall and her nurse, Shiloh Irons, leave behind the glittering lights of New York City and travel to Charleston, South Carolina, intending to stay for only a short time. But the purpose of their stop immediately draws them into the plight of this war-torn Southern city, in the painful throes of Reconstruction and carpetbagger policies after the Civil War.

Dr. Cheney Duvall, weary of being rejected for jobs simply because she is a woman, jumps at the chance to care for two hundred frontier brides-to-be on a sea voyage from New York to Washington Territory, but with the journey looming before her, Cheney begins to doubt whether she is really prepared for the responsibility.

Cheney receives a letter from a friend pleading that she come to a remote spot in the Ozark Mountains. The friend is having a baby, and there are no doctors available in the primitive wilderness. Though she is warned about the mountain folks, Cheney feels compelled to go and provide medical care to her friend and the community.

A disturbing letter from her great-aunts has brought Cheney Duvall to their indigo plantation outside of New Orleans, but what she and Shiloh Irons discover is much more serious and dangerous than they imagined. A West Indies cult has begun performing rituals and rites on a high knoll just across the bayou from the plantation, and warnings are sent that La Maison des Chattes Bleues is on spirit ground and the aunts must leave.
