    [synopsis] => The Pulitzer Prize-winning author takes a classic fairy tale and turns it into a novel set along the eighteenth-century frontier of the Natchez Trace.   In the clammy forests of Louisiana, somewhere between New Orleans and the muddy Mississippi River, the berry-stained bandit of the woods, Jamie Lockhart, saves the life of a gullible planter. In reward, Jamie is given shelter-only to kidnap the planter's lovely young daughter, Rosamund. It's an impulsive act that will have far-reaching consequences, and will set in motion a series of fantastic, murderous, and flamboyantly uncivilized romantic adventures.   With legendary figures of Mississippi's past-including notorious riverboatman Mike Fink and the thrill-killing Harp brothers-mingling side-by-side with characters from legendary fairy tales and the author's own imagination, The Robber Bridegroom in an exuberant cocktail of fantasy, folklore and history along the treacherous Natchez Trace.
