New Orleans, 1836. When free black musician and surgeon Benjamin January attends the funeral of a friend, an accident tips the dead man out of his coffin - only to reveal an unexpected inhabitant.

Review Quotes




"Relayed through January's perspective, the story gives an intimate picture of the intolerance and struggles of the time, but as carefully crafted as these matters are, Hambly is also talented enough to entertain. That's two successes for the price of one"-- "Booklist"

"Sorrow, grief, and pain pervade Hambly's outstanding ninth Benjamin January mystery, set in New Orleans during the summer of 1836... A must read"-- "Publishers Weekly Starred Review"

"Vivid glimpses of the disparate lives led by whites and people of color in mid-19th century New Orleans"-- "Kirkus Reviews"
