One Shining Soul

Wayne L Wilson

A new and exciting story entwined with magical realism and fantasy about a divine African American healer born in Los Angeles depicting the miracle of love. Ever since Olisa was a child, her father has feared that the world might one day find out that his daughter is blessed with very special gifts.

On a fateful 4th of July, the renowned Venice Beach Boardwalk becomes the scene of a violent conflagration between Latino and Black gangs. People flee in all directions except for one black woman who fearlessly cradles the head of a notorious gang leader who has been fatally stabbed. It seems like time has come to a standstill. The fighting ends and the young man slowly rises to his feet clutching his chest not from pain, but from shock, a collective gasp is uttered. A random shout of "It's a miracle!" reverberates across the Boardwalk. A local reporter, who captured this miracle on film, will broadcast it throughout the world. This supernatural event catapults this striking, yet demure Black young woman to an unwanted fame overnight. She becomes "The Good Witch of Venice". Society's reaction to finding a healer among them plays a major role in Olisa's journey. Is she an angel, a curandera or shaman? Or is she a devil? Who is this woman? Will our multicultural society accept this gift or will it seek to corrupt her into an icon, a diva, and a commercial entity? What is known is that the world's survival may rest on her delicate shoulders. Follow her epic journey as a modern day healer driven by faith and love.
