Genre: Ancient History
Review:
This book is a powerful and thought-provoking novel that shows what life might be like if history had taken a different turn. In this story, the Confederacy won the American Civil War more than 160 years ago. Because of that, slavery still exists in the Southern states of America. The story revolves around a teenage boy named Ryan Walters and his group of friends who live in Huntsville, Alabama. For them, slavery is a normal part of life—they never really questioned it. They go to high school, play sports, hang out, and live their lives just like any other teens today.
Their favorite hangout spot is Jaybird’s Drive-In, where they meet a young slave girl named Mish, who works as a server. She’s friendly, kind, and clearly treated unfairly. Everything changes for Ryan and his friends when Mish is sold to a creepy old man. This shocking event opens their eyes to the harsh and unjust world around them. From here, the story becomes exciting and emotional. Ryan and his friends make a brave decision to help Mish escape, even though they know it’s dangerous. They start to understand what it really means to fight for justice, even if it puts their own lives at risk.
It mixes action, history, and heart in a way that keeps you turning the pages. It’s not just a thrilling read—it also encourages readers to question injustice and stand up for what is right. This book is recommended to those who enjoy stories with action, friendship, and meaningful messages. Go and order your copy now !
