Description
From the very beginning fate drove Fannie Turner in a most terrible way. Her
life circumstances, family, even her own desires conspire to drive her into the
depths of shame and despair. Fannie had not the slightest inkling of how to
halt or even slow her descent into hell. Deserted by her prostitute mother,
Fanny confuses her need to find love and respectability with behavior that
invites only betrayal and humiliation. She seems fated to work in Storyville,
the notorious New Orleans red light district at her mother's house of
prostitution. Even the aristocratic Phillippe Sompayac, who offers Fanny a way
to a respectable life is damned for even knowing her.
