Perhance Freedom

Perchance Freedom is a murder mystery set in New England and the civil war South in 1861. Emily White is a fledgling journalist whose instinct is to investigate her stories before reporting them. Her editor at the Daily Whaler in New Bedford introduces Emily to the Underground Railroad and enlists her on secret mission of inquiry and danger. The unexpected pragmatism of subjugation opens her eyes wide. As she defies the brutality and injustice of plantation life and the reality of her undisclosed investigation is exposed it becomes more likely that Emily will never see her loving Westport ever again.
