Welcome to Braids the Novel website
BRAIDS is the saga of three families whose lives are woven together by tragedy. The braids of relationships that are formed endure the tests of time and are extended for generations. The saga begins in 1937 on the old plantation of Quinnton Meadows.
According to the servants who worked there, Quinnton Meadows was the Garden of Eden. They were the highest paid servants in the state of North Carolina. The Quinntons did not discriminate by the color of a servant’s skin. White and Negro servants worked side by side in an atmosphere of peace and harmony. Every servant received equal respect as well as equal pay. Elizabeth Quinnton and Mabel Goodman, the head cook, were best friends.
Then one day the tranquility changed forever. That was the day the serpent, Robert “Big Bob” Thorn, entered the Garden and brought with him an evilness that permeated the atmosphere.
