The Lady is a highly respected black woman, who is rumored to be more than one-hundred years old. Most people are unnerved by the black woman, who is said to be an expert in voodoo magic. Over the course of the novel, Cory becomes good friends with the Lady after a flood wipes out a portion of Bruton, and he even rescues a small black boy from a monster fish known as Old Moses. In return, the Lady gives Cory a bike....... he names the bike Rocket.
