Orphaned in the cholera epidemic of 1833, seven-year-old Adria is rescued by Louis, an enslaved Christian. Twelve years later Adria is a nineteen-year-old abolitionist, and, remembering what he did for her, she's determined to find a way to obtain his freedom. Partially based on actual events, including those of real-life slave and hero Louis Sansbury, this promises to be an interesting look at this period in our history.
