The story of a white man who chose to live in the black man's world during post-Civil War. Not fully accepted by his chosen people, Frank Fulton lived in the black community and was not tolerated by Southern whites. A man without a country, he had fled his native England after killing a man. The story tells of his painful childhood, wrongful incarceration in an asylum, his flight to America and his struggles to survive in the New World. Fate made Fulton a master of his own cunning, breaking every commandment in the Book, yet he was a moral man whose actions proved just, though often outside the law. Through it all, he was a loving, caring man to whom women were drawn. The "Black Pearls" are the three black women in his life who helped shape and define it.
