"Oxford, Maryland, 1747. Sarah Wise would give anything to feel safe. Homeless and mourning her kidnapped girl, the widowed housekeeper makes a shrewd decision to accept a marriage offer from wealthy shipping tradesman Robert Morris, Sr. But after she witnesses the abuse of his slaves and he brands her with the company seal, she's petrified she'll always be a mistress and never a wife. Yearie longs for a more just system. Endlessly loyal to the young mother who controls her manumission, the enslaved woman works hard to open her owner's eyes to the cruelty of their master-servant culture. But as her heart burns for a man she can't openly love and her calculated disruptions draw unwanted attention, she's terrified change is slowly slipping through her fingers. Heeding Yearie's outcry, Sarah secretly teams up with an underground network to put right what she can in their master's business dealings. And with Yearie clearing the path for revolution but still hopelessly hitched to the wrong wagon, she fears she's made a costly mistake in laying her freedom in Sarah's hands. Will their courageous play for a modicum of respect push them both into an unmarked grave?"--Back cover.
