Set against the backdrop of a plantation in the 1830s, the story follows eleven-year-old Harriet Whitehead, who finds her place by writing letters for her blind stepmother. Her life changes when she befriends Nat Turner, a slave preacher whose powerful messages resonate with her. When Harriet draws a map for Nat, she unknowingly becomes involved in his plan that leads to a significant slave uprising. Ann Rinaldi crafts a compelling narrative that explores themes of innocence, complicity, and the harsh realities of history through Harriet's perspective.
