Synopsis
The Civil War truly hits home when Susanna's father is called to help the Confederate Army. Twelve-year-old Susanna is placed in charge of the family's South Carolina plantation and her two younger brothers. Then the Yankee soldiers invade their island, forcing Susanna and her brothers Neddie and Samuel to escape to their other home in Charleston.
When a fire destroys their Charleston home, Susanna decides nothing will stop them from finding their father. Throughout the dangerous journey, Susanna can't help but question the traditions her family and most Southerners have been fighting to protect. Maybe it's time to stop going with the flow, and go up against the tide.

From the Back Cover
"Love offers an uncommon perspective in this Civil War novel told from the point of view of a 12-year-old Confederate girl."--Booklist
"The Civil War novel starts off at a clip and sustains its fast pace. . . . Readers will revel in the three protagonists' bravery and spirit."--Publishers Weekly
"[Susanna] grapples with survival at every turn in this action-packed story. Love successfully and nonjudgmentally presents Susanna's plight and beliefs."--Booklist
"Love establishes a strong sense of era with perspective comments from slaves and slave owners alike, keeps the plot speeding along, and in Susanna concocts a winning mix of intelligence, strong will and naïveté."--Kirkus Reviews
