Synopsis

In Dark Sister, Lynn V. Andrews sheds brilliant light on the dangerous, destructive aspects of women's power by following the remarkable story of Sin Corazn, an initiate in the Sisterhood of the Shields. As she begins her apprenticeship, Corazn is encouraged to explore and confront her fascination with the dark mysteries of the soul in order to overcome them. When her husband abandons her for another woman, however, she succumbs to her dark side and unleashes the full extent of her rage. It is only through love that she is able to find peace.

Using the shamanistic themes and language that have formed the core of Andrews' work, Dark Sister offers a timely lesson that helps women accept -- and harness -- their sexual power and capacity for aggression. It is an eloquent, empowering parable that ultimately teaches readers an essential key to achieveing greater self-knowledge and inner tranquillity.

From the Back Cover:

When Sin Corazon, a ravishingly beautiful member of the Sisterhood of the Shields, begins her training, she is encouraged to explore and confront her fascination with the dark mysteries in her soul in order to overcome them. While embarked on this dangerous journey, she nearly succumbs to the powers of her inner darkness when her husband abandons her for another woman. In retaliation, Sin Corazon unleashes the full extent of her rage not only against men but also by passionately turning against her own Sisterhood. Dark Sister is a book about the choices between love and evil in life, how decisions are made within each of us, and how a woman can regain her own sense of integrity and peace.
