About this listen

On Christmas Eve, 1951 in New Orleans, fifteen-year-old Johnnie Wise is sold into prostitution by her domineering mother, and her dreams of being an Evangelist or nightclub singer like Billie Holiday vanish like the notes of an old song.

In her new life, surrounded by powerful men with even more powerful secrets, Johnnie finds that she can use romance with the men that pay to sleep with her to her advantage, and the teenage girl finds herself thrown into a world of wealth, bribery, and cold-blooded gangsters.

But, the underbelly of New Orleans in the fifties isn’t without its dangers. The Story of Johnnie Wise is a dramatic nail-biter with enough steamy romance that leaves listeners questioning if love can really exist in such a dark world.
