Eugenia Leigh Woolum, pampered heiress to a large plantation in South Carolina, is awakened one cold November night in Indiana by a high, keeing cry that echoes through the night. Frightened by tales of voodoo she had heard from the slaves, she cowers under the comforter on her bed. But curiosity gets the better of her and she decides to investigate. Her discovery leads her into a tangled web of intrigue and war that threatens to destroy both her father s southern family and her mother s northern one. Confronted by the secrets she must keep and conflicted by emotion, Eugenia finds an ally in her cousin Olivia. Together the young women find themselves involved in what has become known as the Underground Railroad.
