Description
In 1861, with the American Civil War escalating, motherless Jennine Parkington is taken from her home in New Orleans to live on a cotton plantation in Savannah with her cousin Annise--a cousin she intensely dislikes.
During the more than three years she must spend in Georgia awaiting the return of her father from his covert Northern military duties, Jennine finds her attitude changing about many things, in particular her attitude toward Negroes and the handsome mulatto boy who works on the plantation. As the South sinks slowly to its knees, the two cousins find themselves unwittingly caught in the family's dangerous espionage and Underground Railroad activities.
In spite of the horror of the surrounding war, Jennine comes to love and admire her independent and fearless cousin, finding comfort and joy in her company and in the mysterious treasures of a long-forgotten secret attic.
