Publisher's Note In 1940s New Orleans, a lightskinned black family moves back and forth across the color line in this magnolia perfumed novel of Southern mores. Original.
Industry Reviews "Tervalon has the ability to approach violence, religion and race directly and effectively, so at times this novel feels like a good, dark New Orleans folk ballad." Amador
"Plenty of violence washes through these pages, but it never seems overdone, even with a villain who's a handsome, well-dressed, sociopathic pimp." Cruz
