Description
A powerful and poignant novel of historical fiction, The Undertaker's Assistant is set against the tumultuous backdrop of Reconstruction-era New Orleans. The story follows Effie Jones, a former slave who has built a new life for herself as an embalmer, but finds herself drawn into a world of protests and activism when she encounters a charismatic state legislator and a beautiful young Creole. As Effie navigates the complexities of her past and her present, she must confront the painful memories she has tried to forget and find a way to claim her place in the world.
