Description
Henry O'Toole's journey to America in 1848 is one of survival and transformation. Leaving poverty and famine behind, he seeks work as a blacksmith on the prosperous plantations of Virginia. In this new land, Henry faces anti-Irish prejudice and must change his surname to escape hardship. Meanwhile, Sarah, a slave torn from her family, navigates the complex hierarchy of her fellow slaves and the whims of her white masters. Her path is complicated by the attentions of the mysterious blacksmith who has come to Jubilee Plantation. As tensions rise, Sarah's determination to be reunited with her husband and daughter drives her actions, while Maple, a fellow slave, must confront the dangers of a white man's attention and the bitter consequences of her own bitter past.
