Rosa Hill's birthmarks tell a chilling story of her brutal murder in her past life. As she grew older, she hid many of the marks with makeup, clothing, and a tattoo. She recently began questioning the story behind the marks; more than she ever had. The marks were in the most intimate areas of her body, while others were next to vital organs or arteries. The rest of her body is covered in tiny red marks resembling blood-spatter and cigarette burns. Thinking this might be a "wild goose-chase", it did not take her long to find her answers. She found more than she was looking for. She also realized that her tattoo of 24 years would now take on the meaning of a "brand" carrying an impression of her former life as "Mrs. Spade Cooley".
When Rosa came upon a mountain of correlating information on the web about a 1940s fiddle player named "Spade Cooley", also known as the original "King of Western Swing, her blood ran cold, as she recognized his face. This was a person she has loved in this lifetime. After learning the details of the coroner's testimony from that dreadful April 3, 1961, incident, Rosa came to the conclusion that there is no way in God's green Universe that she is not Ms. Ella Mae Evans-Cooley, and her first husband from this lifetime is none other than the notorious Spade Cooley.
