Knight's Crossing

Jess Mowry

Across a young nation a storm is brewing, the brutal storm of the Civil War

that will sweep away everything Ashley Knight was taught to believe in.


When Ashley Knight returns from New Orleans to his family's Louisiana plantation, he encounters a sassy slave boy named Lucky who belongs to Seth Franklin, a plantation owner about whom not much is known. A visit to Franklin's plantation reveals the secret of the slaves' contentment and forces Ashley to confront his own prejudices and the very act of slavery itself.
