Publisher's summary

What is your life worth when someone else owns it?

When Mercy Maddox makes a spur of the moment decision to pretend she is the fare of a man holding a name card at Savannah Airport, she doesn't suspect she's about to climb into the back seat of a hit man hired to kill his passenger—nor find herself on an Antebellum plantation a hundred and eighty years in the past.

The journey results in a botched rape attempt and Mercy fleeing into the murky swamps of eastern Georgia where she is shot and left for dead. But that's only the beginning of this story. Mercy discovers she has traveled back in time to a place that has not existed for almost 200 years—Butler Plantation, the largest rice and cotton plantation in the south. There, she is caught up in a ruse to impersonate the famous Fanny Kemble Butler and finds herself embroiled in a plot to foil the Reverse Underground Railroad—the heinous practice of kidnapping free people of color in the north to be sold as slaves in the burgeoning southwestern cotton producing states.

This book is based on real people and real events. It is an adventure story, a love story, and a story of one woman's courage to free both herself and those she loves—those she holds dear.
