Set against the backdrop of 1807 Northeast Nigeria and the transatlantic slave trade, the narrative follows Zaki, a chieftain who sacrifices his son to protect his village from Oyo slave raiders. Captured and transported aboard the ship Na'imah, Zaki's journey unfolds as he and his fellow villagers are sold into slavery in Charleston, South Carolina. The story intricately weaves the lives of Zaki and the Biggs family, a plantation owner, exploring themes of sacrifice, survival, and the legacy of dreams across generations.
