註釋The Sauvignon and Ste. Cherie families are different colors, but share the same grandfather. This is not uncommon in the New Orleans of a hundred years ago. Plaçage has been banned and that area of the city, as well as its neighbor, Storyville, has been razed. Eugene has led a charmed life. Happily married to Eartha, he holds the prestigious job of Pullman Porter. His contentment is fueled by the routines of his life - family, friendship, familiar lifestyles. Their future is bright with designs of home ownership and children that look like them. In the spring of 1926, Eugene does a good deed on the Line. Soon, he finds that no good deed goes unpunished and things are rarely what they seem. There is little distinction between good and bad and Eugene wonders if good is bad or is bad, evil. Changes in her husband's life naturally affect Eartha, and as 1927 arrives, all that they have shared for the past six years seems to be crumbling around them. As they embrace what they have, they uncover truths they didn't know existed, and hoped they would never have to face.
