The Benjamin January series features an African American hero who was born in still-French Louisiana at the turn of the 19th century. His mother is the mistress of a plantation owner and his sister is following that path as well. Benjamin went to Paris to train as a doctor and returns to New Orleans only after the death of his beloved wife. January is a dark skinned man in a time and place where that alone is a risk: Unscrupulous men drifting in from American territory kidnap free blacks and sell them to plantation owners who don't ask questions. January is risking more than his livelihood in his effort to solve a mystery--he's risking his freedom and his life.
