Against his will Alex is drawn into the struggles of Carey's slaves--and those of his stepdaughter, Joanna Carey. A mistress with a servant's heart, Joanna is expected to wed her father's overseer, Phineas Reeves, but finds herself drawn instead to the new blacksmith. As their unlikely relationship deepens, successive tragedies strike the Careys. When blame falls unfairly upon Alex he flees to the distant mountains where he encounters Reverend Pauling, itinerate preacher and friend of the Careys, now a prisoner of the Cherokees. Haunted by his abandoning of Joanna, Alex tries to settle into life with the Cherokees, until circumstances thwart yet another attempt to forge his freedom and he's faced with the choice that's long hounded him: continue down his rebellious path or embrace the faith of a man like Pauling, whose freedom in Christ no man can steal. But the price of such mercy is total surrender, and perhaps Alex's very life. 941 $a 11 952 $l GIPC251 $d 20240702040422.0 952 $l STPC124 $d 20230418015946.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20220804023657.0 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20200806013244.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20200310034551.0 952 $l SUPC124 $d 20200305010445.0 952 $l SXPC124 $d 20191018012644.0 952 $l XRPC157 $d 20191015013601.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20191001011330.0 952 $l CHPB482 $d 20190918023643.0 952 $l TDPH826 $d 20190810011235.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2BE79A2CBB3411E98BF16C3597128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
