I love the storyline so far, even when it’s hard to stomach. Unfortunately I fear that the book was perhaps not the most well-researched, since I’ve noticed anachronisms. For example, this book taking place in 1720s New Orleans includes Decatur Street, which is named for a man who wasn’t born until the 1770s. They celebrate Lundi Gras, which started in the late 1800s, and was not named Lundi Gras until the 1980s.
