| Abstract | "1839, North Carolina. As the daughter of a plantation owner, Jacy has been raised in a privileged world. But when her father suddenly dies, her cold, unfeeling mother, Claudia, schemes to marry Jacy off to a well-positioned but lecherous suitor. In a fit of fury over Jacy's protests, Claudia calls her 'a foolish, infernal quadroon'--and reveals that Jacy is the offspring of a dalliance between her father and a slave. Finally Jacy understands the true meaning of 'quarter moon.'"--Page 4 of cover. |
