- The 13th installment in the New York Times best-selling series asks: What if Tiana made a deal that changed everything? Sometimes life in the Big Easy is tough. No one knows that better than Tiana, though she also believes that hard work can go a long way. But when the notorious Dr. Facilier backs her into a corner, she has no choice but to accept an offer that will alter the course of her life in an instant. Soon Tiana finds herself in a new reality where all her deepest desires are realized: she finally gets her restaurant, her friends are safe and sound, and most miraculous of all, her beloved father is still alive. She's got everything she's ever wanted. . . . But after a while, her hometown grows increasingly eerie, with new threats cropping up in unlikely places. Navigating through this strange new New Orleans, Tiana must work alongside Naveen and Charlotte to set things right—or risk losing everything she holds dear.

A young African American woman's love for her family and community leads her to make a bargain with unforeseen consequences in this retelling inspired by Disney's The Princess and the Frog. It's Mardi Gras in 1920s New Orleans, and Tiana, a young African American woman, is running out of time. She is in possession of an amulet that Facilier, the Shadow Man, got one of his minions inside Prince Naveen's inner circle to steal; it allows its wearer to impersonate the prince. He was trying to use it to gain access to the fortune of Eli LaBouff, the richest man in New Orleans, by wooing LaBouff's daughter, Charlotte, who dreams of marrying into royalty. Facilier uses a conjuring trick to force Tiana to make a deal that will help her protect the people she loves. Her end of the bargain is to put a concoction made by the Shadow Man into the gumbo served at her restaurant, a deal that surely cannot end well: Even though Tiana seems to have everything she wants, evil forces are clearly at play. The setting is richly steeped in the history and culture of New Orleans. Chapters alternate between the third-person perspectives of Tiana, Naveen, and Facilier, with each having a distinct voice. This appealing twist on the classic fairy tale "The Frog Prince" creates space for examining different aspects of Vodou and compelling social justice issues that still affect people today. An eerily atmospheric journey through Jazz Age New Orleans. (Fantasy. 12-16)COPYRIGHT(2022) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
