We whisper the names of the ones we love like the words of a song. That was the taste of freedom to us, those names on our lips.

These are the names of her children. The five who survived, only to be sold to other plantations. The faces Rachel cannot forget.

With fear snapping at her heels, Rachel keeps moving. From sunrise to sunset, through the cane fields of Barbados to the forests of British Guiana and on to Trinidad, to the dangerous river and the open sea.
Only once she knows their stories can she rest.
Only then can she finally find home.
