Dana, a modern black woman, is celebrating her twenty-sixth
birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly from
her home in California and transported to the antebellum South.
Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana
has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly
through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows
longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain
whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to
begin.
