Luke Turner is Marie Leveau's nephew. Initially, he has no interested in taking Hurston on as a pupil, but when he finally agrees, he takes her through an initiation and is pleased with her progress during the months that follow. Luke foresees his own death, and he asks Hurston to remain with him as his partner. He also wants her to take over his business after his death. Hurston refuses.
