Description

Ruby Jean Upshaw's story is one of unapologetic rebellion and fierce determination. Growing up in 1930s Louisiana, she knows what she wants and isn't afraid to take it. But when Ruby discovers she's pregnant, her world is turned upside down. With the help of Othella Mae Cartier, a young woman from a troubled background, Ruby makes a decision that will haunt her for years to come. As they flee their hometown in search of a new life, Ruby's simmering rage and sense of injustice threaten to boil over at any moment. The consequences of this choice will be far-reaching and devastating. This powerful tale of one woman's struggle for survival and self-discovery is a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit.
