About this listen

Inspired by events that shamed and shaped the nation, A Girl Named Coco lays bare the soul of plantation existence, where intense desire and brutal injustice blend like the scents of sweetness and decay in the summer-scorched cane fields of Louisiana.

Until..."Once you're in, you're in." Mrs. Hughes's stare bore through Coco. "And eyes and ears will be on you at all times."

"I'm ready," was all she could think of saying.

Born a free person of a slave mother, A Girl Named Coco courageously searches for her place in the wartime South, until she arrives at the perilous crossroads of the fight to win all their freedom, an impossible assignment in the most wretched corner of America's deadliest conflict.

THOUSANDS OF MEN WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET OUT.

A GIRL NAMED COCO WOULD DO ANYTHING TO GET IN.

From acclaimed author Jennifer Spurgeon, comes an unforgettable account both horrific and uplifting, soaked in the naked misery and superficial splendor of a time when the worst of America's history could create the bet of American deeds.
