520    "When Adebimpe is ten, she is sold with her mother, Sanite,
       to plantation owner John du Marche. He soon renames her 
       Ady but Sanite never lets her daughter forget who she 
       really is - a person who can read and write and understand
       numbers. Most importantly, Sanite reminds Ady that she 
       must never reveal these abilities to a white person, 
       especially not her true name. Tasked with maintaining du 
       Marche's home in vibrant New Orleans, Ady takes in the 
       city and starts to envision life beyond her dire 
       circumstances. One day, she notices a beautiful stranger, 
       radiant and poised with a colorful Tignon wrapped regally 
       around her head. Ady realizes that she is a Free Woman. 
       Inexplicably drawn to her, but not knowing who she is or 
       what she does, Ady begins to search for answers - which 
       eventually brings her to Lenore, a free woman who owns the
       Mockingbird Inn. When Lenore invites Ady to join The 
       Daughters, Ady finds spiritual and sexual liberation, and 
       with their help, imagines a new future for herself and her
       family"--|cProvided by publisher.
