A delightful little tale ...with well drawn characters. Once again Ms. Ocean has written a novel that pays exquisite attention to historical detail, and delivers delightful characters (even the unlikeable ones are fun). Lusty sex scenes that aren't overly graphic add to the playful feel of this story. Great attention to historical detail. Compelling characters. An interesting concept for a novel...writing under a pseudonym, a woman of mixed racial origins travels through the Civil War south and bohemian decadent New York City to discover her roots and find her one true love.
At the birth of the Civil War, Scots-Irish Mabel McCrutchon is ready for love, but because her skin color reveals the family's secret black ancestry, Mabel is ridiculed in public and her own mother excludes her from social gatherings. When wealthy Abolitionist, Charles Churchill invites her to travel to New Orleans to pose as the mother of black children and lead them to safety in the north, he worries about the risk. If his scheme is discovered, Mabel will be swept into Louisiana's slave trade. After arriving at the decaying, antebellum St Francis Plantation to retrieve the children, they're greeted by a sultry blonde who knows Charles much too well.
