Train on the way--

The pre-order period has now begun...
A Death at the White Camellia Orphanage tells of a young boy's
travels through the black heart of Depression America and his search
for light both metaphorical and real. Writing with a controlled lyrical
passion, Marly Youmans has crafted the finest, and the truest period
novel I've read in years.
