In March, 1756, Lynn Celia Claxton arrives in the British colony of Georgia; within a month, she finds herself widowed and on the run from the law. Stowing away aboard a flatboat on the Savannah River, she is discovered by Thomas Simpson, a young man whose destiny will be intertwined with hers from that moment forward. From the colonial town of Savannah, to the frontier outpost of Ninety-Six, and into the untamed Carolina mountains, this bittersweet historical novel follows the lives of Thomas and Lynn Celia as they struggle to carve a place for themselves in the hostile and unforgiving frontier of the colonial Southeast.
