Her childhood friend Mourning Free knows how to work a farm and Olivia has complete trust in him.The problem: he's the orphaned son of runaway slaves and reluctant to travel and work with a white girl. He especially fears the slave catchers who patrol the free states, hunting fugitive slaves.

Then her world falls apart.
Strong-willed, vulnerable, and compassionate, Olivia is a compelling protagonist on a journey to find a way to do the right thing in a world in which so much is wrong.

They set out together, not without hesitation. Despite the hardships of surviving in a remote log cabin, everything goes smoothly. Olivia believes that her unfulfilled romantic interest in their young, single neighbor is the root of her problems, as she is unable to acknowledge her feelings for Mourning.
