The brilliant writer's work takes us—along with her Black female hero—through time to confront the atrocities of slavery and investigate the effects of racism, misogyny, and white supremacist both historically and contemporaryly.

Dana, a contemporary Black woman, is taken unexpectedly from her California home and sent to the antebellum South when she is celebrating her 26th birthday with her new spouse. The white plantation owner's son Rufus is drowning, and Dana has been called in to rescue him. Every time Dana is sent back in time to the slave quarters, her stay becomes longer, more difficult, and riskier until it seems as if her life would die before it has a chance to start.
