Kidd's novels are amazing reads! This one is a departure from 20th century life and dates back to the southern gentility in Charleston. This story is based on real people who made their mark in history. Two sisters from a slave-owning family in Charleston in the early 1800s are the rebellious ones who sympathize with the plight of the negro. It follows their fight for freedom of their slaves regardless of the consequences to their family. This is a wonderful story of love and loyalty and compassion...the story of Sarah, her sister, Nina and their slave, Hetty.
