Tanglewood Plantation II: Adventure in the Everglades.
A time-traveling heroine aids a slave ancestor in 1864 Florida.
Miller combines supernatural horror with historical adventure by placing Summer Woodfield in the dangerous environment of the Everglades during the Civil War. The narrative focuses on the physical and emotional struggle to rescue Cherry from a kidnapper while dealing with the chaos of war deserters and local tribes. The introduction of Captain Ruiz adds a layer of romantic intrigue that contrasts with the surrounding violence. This structure allows the author to explore themes of ancestry, justice, and survival within a specific historical context. The story does not offer a comprehensive view of the era but rather uses it as a backdrop for personal conflict and supernatural resolution.
The novel is set in the Everglades and references Magnolia Plantation, drawing on the American Civil War period of 1864. It incorporates elements of Southern Gothic tradition through its focus on ghosts, slavery, and historical trauma within a fictionalized narrative framework.
