A book for older children, set during the Depression on a former plantation in Louisiana, on the banks of the Mississippi. The blurb says, "a heartbreakingly evocative story, steeped in Southern lore, about one girl's struggle to come to terms with her family's dark past." Very well written, but not one I plan to reread.
