About this listen

Raised on a South Carolina plantation as the house pet of her white master's daughter, Kitty never made a decision for herself. Now, as a young adult, she must preserve her faith while making the biggest decision ever: stay with her master and go south to avoid the Yankees or run away tonight to the North with Grady, the field slave she has come to love.

Renowned author Lynn Austin has received three Christy Awards for historical fiction, two for the first books in this Refiner's Fire series.

Another display of Gods hand & love

I will never forget what I learned about history and perspective from this series. what an amazing God we serve! if we could all tell our testimony we would just see how truly blessed and thankful we all ought to be at all times. Through the darkest valley He is there and oh what a blessing it is when you rediscover light on your once dark past. Oh that we may all taste and see that He is good & through salvation you can be made new- restored!

First Christan Book to have my full attention

This was one of the best books I've read/listen and the Christian historical and real aspect of it was great. Held my attention from the first chapter. I will be downing more books by this author. The narrator didn't have a southern accent but because of her talent that was overlooked.

I wanted MORE!

Absolutely the BEST book in the series! It was heartbreaking, breathtakingly beautiful, infuriating, and it left me wanting justice! However, the author and the narrator showed God's grace, blessings, and mercy at every turn! Phenomenal read! I found myself watching the timer to see how close I was to the next BIG event!

It breaks my heart to know humans treated other humans like this and thought the way they did! The author did a fantastic job of bringing such evil to light, but lovingly outcast that darkness with God's love!

Storyline

Loved the authenticity of God’s character woven throughout the book. It’s brings a perspective to slavery that most people do not understand. An amazing read!

LIked the story

Just finished and was a little disappointed in the ending.
But all in all I liked the story. The narration is amazing and I feel I learned more about that time in our history.
