The Civil Warfare has turned neighbor against neighbor - but for one scientist spy and her philosopher soldier, warfare could bind them along. For 3 years of the Warfare Between the States, Marlie Lynch has helped the cause in tranquility: with coded characters about anti-Rebel uprisings in her Carolina woods, tisanes and poultices for Union prisoners, and silent help to fleeing slave and Freeman equally. Her formerly enslaved mother's practices and the name of an white daddy she never understood have guarded her - until the vicious Confederate Home Safeguard claims Marlie's home for their new bottom part of businesses in the guerilla warfare against Southern resistors of the Rebel cause. Unbeknowst to prospects under her roofing, escaped prisoner Ewan McCall is sheltering in her laboratory. Seemingly a tranquil philosopher, Ewan has his own background with the cruel captain of the house Safeguard and a thoughtful but unbending strength Marlie finds irresistible. If the revelation of a sensational family secret places Marlie's liberty at risk, she and Ewan have to run for their lives in to the hostile Carolina night. Following the journey of the Underground Railroad, they end up swept up in a vicious challenge that could dash their expectations of love - and liberty - before they ever before cross status lines.
