Synopsis

This is a story of the love of a couple at an improbable time, in the American south. It began in 1940 in Jackson, Mississippi where they formed a bond around the murder of a white man, of open bigotry, and convictions that gravitated to war-torn France. Their daring escapes and near-death experiences could not stop their love for each other. A story of how passion between the races down south went on despite the threat of death and led to an unexpected conclusion. A rare treat for readers. What makes this story unique is, despite living in Jackson, to cross racial lines exposed the double standard of forbidden love. When circumstances allow freedom to exist, then what happened in America at that time contrasted with the same conditions in many nations. The human heart is challenged to break barriers exposing just how far America was in comparison to France.
