The year is 1921, and America is burning. A fire of vice and virtue rages on every shore, and Chicago is its beating heart. Nelly Sawyer is the daughter of the “wealthiest Negro in America”, whose affluence catapulted his family to the heights of Black society. After the unexpected death of her only brother, Nelly becomes the premier debutante overnight. But Nelly has aspirations beyond society influence and marriage.

Bravo! Great first novel. Nelly’s story kept me engaged and wanting more. The narration was masterful. The historical references were inspirational and enlightening, I’ll be waiting on the next masterpiece from this brilliant author.
