from the cover:

"New Orleans, turn of the century. Storyville was where prostitutes flourished, legal for nearly twenty years, in a city renowned for sin, seduction, and sex. In between comes this story of two women inextricably linked by, as they called it, 'the District.'

Kate, young, beautiful, and completely green, abandoned by a man who doesn't love her, finds herself thrown on the mercies of the city. She knows that Mollie Q. - one of New Orleans's most enterprising madams - is offering the best she's likely to get...

Julia Randsome is a transplanted Yankee - a supporter of women's rights, who, against everyone's advice, marries into one of the city's most prominent families. She will discover too late that her husband, Charles, owns considerable property in Storyville - and isn't prepared to give it up - even for her.

Kate and Julia occupy different universes in New Orleans, but somehow, in that city, all roads lead to the same place - back to the District..."
