Talismanic characters are believed to influence others, attract attention, and offer divine protection.

Inspired by a true story, Powers of Persuasion follows four such figures, each one a living talisman rooted in the mystic soil of South Carolina's Low Country.

A doctor who treats without a license and taps into something deeper than medicine. A charismatic prosecutor whose empire rests on "power, prestige, and privilege." An unorthodox sheriff who rarely carries a gun but wields influence like a weapon. And a visionary school leader who transforms a crumbling schoolhouse into a sanctuary for learning and hope. Their stories intertwine in a world shaped by hoodoo, hidden power, and the enduring battle between justice and control.

Step into a world where belief is power, and where magic is as real as the law. Watch out for dem Boo Hags and don't let Doctor Buzzard put a spell on you.
