Set in Haiti, Moonbath is a wonderfully detailed family fresco on the fault lines that have crossed the island for a century.

After three days of storms, a fisherman discovers a young girl, washed up on the beach. The girl cries out, calling on all the voodoo gods and her ancestors, in a plea to help her understand how she ended up there. In this detailed family novel, Yanick Lahens looks back at the three generations that preceded the young woman in order to unravel the mystery of her identity.
