SOLVED! YA- black cover with blue alligator, Haitian theme?... [s] (showing 1-4 of 4)

[Marci comment history]

The cover of this book was black, with a blue alligator on it. The alligator was a tribal type sketch. I think the setting was down South somewhere, and the main character was a black girl. I want to say this is historical fiction, because there was a lot of racial tension in the book (I think?), but I'm not sure if it was historical or contemporary.

I think there was a scene towards the end where the white boy decides not to kill her, as well.

I just read that great book last month! I'm positive you are refering to Stormwitch by Susan Vaught

Thank you! This was bothering me for ages, now I'm going to reread it again.
