About this book
In 1824 Trinidad, Marie Ursule, a leader of a secret society of enslaved rebels, plans a mass suicide as an act of defiance. When she cannot bring herself to kill her infant daughter, she smuggles the child away, setting off a lineage that spreads across America, Canada, and Europe. Over six generations, these descendants confront the haunting legacy of Marie Ursule's rebellion, each struggling to reconcile the dreams of freedom with the reality of their lives.
