Taylor Swift knew you were trouble when you walked in. Cecile knew trouble was brewing when people started wearing mourning clothes and going out less. During the fourth book in the Marie Grace / Cécile series, we find the girls living through a horrific yellow fever epidemic. We discuss what was happening in the summer of 1853 for the people of New Orleans--and how the fictional Rey family fares through it all. This episode also includes a discussion of 90s Con and what in the world was happening in 2011 (when this book came out).
