by Ginny Brock (Author)

Weaving metaphysics, history, and social justice into a really great story, Ginny Brock creates a harrowing tale of an enslaved child (c.1820s) who flees from the horror of an intentionally set plantation fire into a den of human traffickers on her journey along the James River to Richmond to find her mother. At 10 years of age, her only weapons are a fair complexion and an uncanny ability to communicate with animals. This riveting pageturner immerses the reader in the language and culture of 19th century Black and White Virginia.
