 | An Acquaintance with Darkness by Ann Rinaldi
In this novel set in 1865, 14-year-old Emily Bransby Pigbush is overwhelmed by the horrors of the last days of the Civil War and her mother's lingering wasting illness. When her mother dies, she leaves Emily an orphan. Emily wants to live with her best friend, Annie Surratt, but her Uncle Valentine, a doctor, will not allow it, and gets legal custody of Emily. When President Lincoln is assassinated, Emily is horrified to discover that Annie's mother and brother are implicated in the crime. Emily also begins to suspect that her uncle and his assistant are stealing bodies from the graveyard for purposes of medical research. Although this is a fictional work, many of the characters, including Annie Surratt and her family, really existed. AUTHOR: Ann Rinaldi
