In 1794, Johnny Watkins returns to America from Barbados,
intent on becoming a great statesman. Even his hero, John
Adams, believes the gifted boy will go far. There’s just one
catch: Johnny must learn to pass for white. He finds a spirited and lovely confidante in Kate, one of
the few who knows that Johnny’s father had been born a
slave. But as he moves closer toward the new city of
Washington, Johnny leaves Kate behind, falling instead for a
prominent Maryland heiress who may not have his best
interests at heart. Embroiled in the vicious politics of the
approaching election, Johnny lives every moment at risk of
being unmasked. Then, a discovery about Thomas Jefferson, one that could
sway the election, imperils not only Johnny’s future but
also his life. In the end, Johnny learns who his real
friends are—and the truth behind the great promise of life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
