Liberty, Indiana, is home to an underground railroad station run by Anna Brent and her father, secret abolitionists who run a shelter for escaped slaves traveling to freedom. The Brents must be very careful; anyone caught aiding an escape is subject to imprisonment under the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850. So when Anna begins writing columns in the local newspaper denouncing slavery, she must do so under a pseudonym. Even the newspaper's editor, Daniel Stanton, does not know the author's true identity. Daniel risks publishing the columns—his job, the newspaper, and his life could be in danger. When Anna's job is threatened, can she turn to the newspaper's vociferous editor, a man she barely knows, to ensure the safety of the slaves she holds dear? Will she and Daniel risk everything to help the fugitive slaves stay free?

"A beautiful historical romance skilfully woven with page-turning suspense and a tender look into the heart of a passionate young heroine. Melanie Dobson's powerful narrative will keep you glued to the pages of this remarkable book."
