Orphaned in the cholera epidemic of 1833, Adria Starr was cared for by a slave named Louis, a man who stayed in Springfield, Kentucky, when anyone with means had fled. A man who passed up the opportunity to escape his bondage and instead tended to the sick and buried the dead. A man who, 12 years later, is being sold by his owners despite his heroic actions. Now 19, Adria has never forgotten what Louis did for her. She's determined to find a way to buy Louis's freedom. But in 1840s Kentucky, she'll face an uphill battle.

Based partly on a true story, Ann H. Gabhart's latest historical novel is a tour de force. The vividly rendered town of Springfield and its citizens immerse listeners in a story of courage, betrayal, and honor that will stick with them long after the final moment.

Love the storyline.
It was easy to like and dislike characters. I tried to put myself in their shoes, how would I react. I'm not one to keep quite.

Wonderful story, with characters that capture your heart. Showing people who went through terrible hardship and still came through with their faith in God. I was especially impressed to find out that this was historical fiction, but based on real people and what the town did To help him.

The story of Louis is filled with heart warming characters and twists that are completely unexpected! I would love to know if Logan ends up becoming a believer and comes back for his girl!

A compassionate town

The narration makes the story come to life. At first I detested the narrator's voice as she brought different characters to life, but I continued to listen because I found the story interesting. In the end, I'm glad I stuck with it.

There were many parts that caused me to smile, others that were a bit predictable, and some that made me say, hmmm...didn't expect that to occur.

I truly enjoyed the spiritual sharing. It reminds readers that we are all children of God, walking our own journey under His care. It also showed how being in a relationship with God impacts perspective - ours and others.

Captivating and warm

I was led to read this book as I do not read/listen to a book until I read reviews first. This book struck a cord with me and I know why. The solid scripture messages really have spoken to my heart and at a time I needed. Thank you so much Ann Gabhart! I pray believing....

Great Book!

I love how the author honored a slave in Kentucky who had done remarkable works to help the community he lived in. It is a well written historical fiction that is worth listening to.
