Description
Set against the upheaval of the Civil War, this powerful historical novel follows Kitty, an enslaved house servant whose lifelong obedience is challenged when Union forces draw near and the possibility of freedom comes within reach. Torn between loyalty to the household she has always served and the urging of those who believe she should choose her own future, Kitty must confront fears and convictions she has never been allowed to examine. As she seeks guidance through faith, courage, and the wisdom of those around her, she begins a deeply personal journey toward identity, literacy, freedom, and self-determination. Lynn Austin’s compassionate storytelling explores the cost of bondage and the transformative power of discovering one’s God-given voice.
