Synopsis

A 2011 BookList Top Ten Inspirational Book

This riveting conclusion of Grace Winslow’s fight for freedom carries her from England to America’s Deep South. After learning that her husband, Cabeto, is on a South Carolina plantation, Grace dons a sailor’s disguise and boards the only ship headed for America—a detestable slave ship. When her secret is discovered, Grace is locked up in the hold.

In South Carolina, Grace is bought immediately, but soon sold to a man who is not a slave keeper. Moved by her story of perseverance and faith, John Hull makes Grace’s mission his own. Grace now has a dear brother in Christ to help her, but a restored sense of hope does not mean the path to finding Cabeto will be clear—or free of trouble . . .

From Booklist:

The poignant story of Grace Winslow moves from the slave coast of Africa to eighteenth-century England to the oppression of a South Carolina cotton plantation. There Grace continues the search for her beloved husband, Cabeto, a man recently ripped from the arms of his family by slavers. Strom closes the Grace in Africa trilogy (The Call of Zulina, 2009; The Voyage of Promise, 2010) with depictions of the sorrows of slavery in the Americas and the heroic measures taken by individuals to seek freedom for themselves and others. Surprised first by the abject cruelty of some and the unexpected kindness of others, Grace and Cabeto struggle to overcome seemingly insurmountable odds as they find their way in a new and dangerous land. Series followers will demand its finale, and fans of inspirational historical fiction will appreciate the authenticity Strom weaves into her tales of courageous faith and determination. --Elizabeth Ponder
