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.
