In a small town north of New Orleans, a forgotten slave cemetery has become a drinking hangout for a group of white teenagers.

And Danny—hired by a property developer to protect his property—finds himself on the wrong side of an emotionally charged struggle over land, power, and tradition.

His gift for language and storytelling comes across on every page." —San Francisco Chronicle "This is the rare book that doesn't hit even one wrong note.
