Klappentext zu „Song Yet Sung “
'The past is living. It is linked to the present, and the work ain't done yet . . .'In the tense days before the American Civil War, in the swamplands of the Maryland shore, a wounded slave girl and her visions of the future tear a community apart in a riveting drama of hope and redemption.
Kidnappings, gunfights and chases ensue in this extraordinary story of violence, tragic triumph, and unexpected kindness.
