Book excerpt: "Raised on a small Ohio farm just across the river from Kentucky, Jacob remains largely indifferent to the impending struggle between the North and South. His father allows two runaway slaves to be hidden on their land. Jacob finds himself drawn to the beautiful Sarah. When the local militia discovers the slaves, Jacob is forced to watch the militiamen abuse his mother and destroy his home. When Jacob can take the abuse no more, he kills one of the soldiers and flees for his life, crossing to the other side of the river."--Jacket.
