Description
Set in Civil War–era Richmond, this historical novel follows Caroline Fletcher, a privileged young woman whose growing awareness of slavery forces her to question her family’s values and the society around her. As war reshapes the South, Caroline’s friendships, convictions, and emerging romance draw her into difficult choices involving loyalty, courage, and the fight for human dignity. Blending richly researched history with Christian themes of faith, redemption, and moral responsibility, the story portrays one woman’s journey toward independence and compassion amid a nation’s deepening crisis.
