Publisher's Synopsis
A shaded villa in the heart of New Orleans houses a peculiar Creole family and their rotting secret. Their fragile existence falls apart when hurricane Katrina'a clouds bulge on the horizon. Truths float to the surface of the murky waters. Armand finds that he can no longer pretend. When his daughter died, was it God's will or blind hatred? When decades have passed, it no longer matters. Only the pain does, the void. And New Orleans - where a mother's love is not enough, Mississippi intervenes in human pursuit, ghosts walk among us, and the colour you were born decides your fate, still.
