Description:This work of historical fiction is based on true events in early 20th century Atlanta, Georgia. Willie May Wheeler, a poor, young, rural Georgia woman was willing to do whatever it took to escape her upbringing. She wished to become an independent woman of means in the big city of Atlanta. She managed to seduce a prospective husband who brought her to the city.

Her exploits included morphine addiction, run-ins with the law, and operating a brothel.
