Book excerpt: Her world is ending, but only she can stop all of existence from meeting the same fate... This stunning novel begins when a pending divorce and job loss force Alena Ford out of her elite life in Manhattan's Upper East Side, and into a gritty section of Brooklyn. Stripped of everything, she is forced to face the demons of her past and the ghosts in her heart. When Alena befriends her eccentric neighbor Gloria, the woman's stunning amethyst necklace and Black Madonna painting draw her into a world of ancient secrets, dark forces, and powerful magic. It is a world in which black women are divine. Alena finds that it is up to her to save humanity from a universal evil, the Shetani. To succeed, Alena must first conquer her own darkness; if she loses, the fate of the world is at stake. A brilliantly crafted story that seamlessly grapples race, oppression, divinity, and the redemptive power of forgiveness. "Riveting and engaging. A Fistful of Honey is an epic, spellbinding tale filled with heart-pounding action. Crawford offers a thrilling sensory experience reminiscent of Octavia Butler's sci-fi and fantasy classics that will transport you between times and worlds; across the plains of Africa, to the rice fields of the deep south." -Debrena Jackson Gandy, New York Times bestselling author of Sacred Pampering Principles: An African-American Woman's Guide to Self-Care
