About this audiobook

One night for herself leads to a file that can bury her family. Yvonne Guichard buries New Orleans for a living. Three generations, one building on Washington Avenue, and a book of little burial policies her grandmother sold door to door with a composition notebook. For four years she has also buried her own husband every single day, in public, in black, for an audience that cannot get enough of how well she carries it. On a Saturday night in October she walks out of a gala with her husband’s name on the program, takes a room at a hotel on Canal Street, and spends the night with a man who has never heard of Augustin Dejoie. On Monday morning that man walks into her building with a reinsurer’s letter and asks for the Dryades Street files.
