The opening scene includes foreshadowing that will only be explained near the end of the novel. Rowan walks past “the place where he died” (3) and the reader will later learn this is where a homeless black man named Arvin is pushed into oncoming traffic. She also talks about the way the city has changed since 1921, which is a reference to the race riots that took hundreds of lives and resulted in the destruction of an entire black neighborhood called Greenwood. I think this looks like a novel that is historical fiction.
