Some names are hidden for a reason.

Ruby has just buried her mother when she finds a photograph and a name her mother never spoke. A name that belongs to New Orleans. A name with a life waiting to be found.

Raven rolls in from the west, drifting more than driving, chasing a beginning that never holds still — until something in New Orleans finally turns to meet her.

Ruby and Raven arrive at the same time, as if the city pulls them both by the same current — strangers to each other, yet not strangers at all.

What gathers around them is what carries them: meals, live music, and secrets as tangled as its roots.

Some things are inherited. Some things are owed.
Few people get to choose which.
