Much of Louisiana, including New Orleans and Baton Rouge, is occupied. The Confederate Army is in disarray, corrupt structures are falling apart, and enslaved men and women are beginning to glimpse freedom. When Hannah Laveau, an enslaved woman working on the Lufkin plantation, is accused of murder, she goes on the run with Florence Milton, an abolitionist schoolteacher, dodging the local constable and the slavecatchers that prowl the bayous. Wade Lufkin, haunted by what he observed--and did--as a surgeon on the battlefield, has returned to his uncle's plantation to convalesce, where he becomes enraptured by Hannah."-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20230101. 650 $a Fugitive slaves $v Fiction. 651 $a Southern States $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865 $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a Novels. 941 $a 2 952 $l WUPB305 $d 20230915011058.0 952 $l JGPC815 $d 20230817010055.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=601FCCBE3CC311EE8B657E6F2BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
