The Black Diamond — B.J. Ramsey

Imagine that jumping through a carnival painting and discovering evil Red Cupids attacking isn't the most exciting thing that's going on. Why is so much happening in 12-year-old Jamaica's life? She not only gets caught up in a battle against the Red Cupids, she also fights a monster inside the Aviary painting, befriends baby Baooshnas, meets the annoying Swamp Mothers and learns about creepy-crawly things inside the swamp . . . especially the dangerous Frogfang creatures. None of this compares to confronting a chained poltergeist who's guarding a secret or the most important battle in her life against the Evil-Duo, Zi'Keke and Z'Enja. In spite of all this, Jamaica is determined to get back at her rival, Bertha Baxter, sneak past the poltergeist to discover what he's guarding and pass her final exams. She also finds time to learn about a battle between good and evil on Earth . . . not only learns about it, but rides with one of the Gods into the future to witness this disaster first hand. Jamaica finally sees her biological mother for the first time, she stands right next to her, but why doesn't her mother see her? Join Jamaica and her friends, back at Old Boot Camp for Angels in Training, as they attempt to stop the Evil-Duo from eliminating the only thing that can incarcerate them . . . The Black Diamond.
