William and America confront evil, but will it costs them everything?
In 1857, America, the daughter of a slave owner, is an abolitionist and a student at Oberlin College, a school known for its radical ideas. America goes home to Kentucky during school break to confront her father about freeing his slaves.
America’s classmate, William, goes to Kentucky to preach abolition to churches that condone slavery. America and William find themselves in the center of the approaching storm sweeping the nation and may not make it home to Ohio or live through the struggle.

My Review:
The book was very interesting but hard to read at times. Set during the time when the North and South differ on Slavery. America’s father owns slaves and she trying to convince him to change and not longer own them. She was going to school to be a missionary but after going home on break her father will not let her return to school. The slaves was treated very bad at times, so sad that is a part of our country’s history. It is a very inspirational story though on how Christ can change people and how having Christ in our lives really makes a difference. This is a first book in a series, I am looking forward to reading the next one.
I received an complementary copy of the book from Lit fuse.
