Dana, a modern black woman, is celebrating her twenty-sixth
birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly
from her home in California and transported to the
antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation
owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him.
Dana is drawn back again and again for Rufus, yet each time
the stay grows longer and more dangerous until it is
uncertain whether or not Dana"s life will end, long before
it has even begun.
