It's where two freedom seekers, Little Annie and Clementine, hid and perished. Whittaker House still stands, and Little Annie and Clementine still linger, their dreamsof freedom unfulfilled. Now a fashionably distressed vacation rental in the Berkshires, Whittaker House draws seekers of another kind: Black women who only appear to be free. Among them are Dominique, a single mother following her grand-meÌre's stories to Whittaker House in search of an ancestor; Michelle, Dominique's lover, who has journeyed to the Berkshire Mountains to heal her own traumas; and Kaye, Michelle's sister, a seer whose visions reveal the past and future secrets of the former safehouse-along with her own. For each of them, true liberation can come only from uncovering their connection to history-and to the spirits awaiting peace and redemption within the walls of Whittaker House"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a African American women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Underground Railroad $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Single mothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Women prophets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Slavery $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Massachusetts $v Fiction. 655 7 $a Thrillers (Fiction) $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Novels. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l TZPC572 $d 20230516010113.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FA937970F3AE11ED84149D5C3CECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
