Learn moreAfter the deaths of her white father and mixed-race mother, young Eliza is left with neither home nor family in the newly forming frontier of Texas. Enslaved by men who treat her body as their property, she eventually escapes, marries, becomes a mother, and realizes her dream of having a small farm. But she must fight and kill to keep it—even if it does mean welcoming others who have been shunned or forgotten by society. Living and laboring together, will these outcasts find the strength and community they need to survive and flourish? Inspired by the story of her great-great grandmother, acclaimed author Roccie Hill presents an unforgettable literary saga of a woman and a place, growing and enduring under multiple flags and through the sorrows and turbulence of history.
Roccie Hill is the author of Three Minutes on Love and Window of Exposure as well as several short stories and a play. A native Californian, she received her BA from UCLA and her MA from San Francisco State University. After working with César Chavez, she lived and worked in Paris and England before returning home, where, in addition to writing, she has exhibited her photography and studied US borderlands cultures. She is a professional genealogist with a focus on Native American ancestry.
Adenrele Ojo is an experienced audiobook narrator and actor. A self-described theater brat, she spent many late nights as a young child falling asleep on theatre chairs as her dad directed and her mother performed. Born in Brooklyn and raised in Philadelphia, she received her bachelor of arts in theater from Hunter College in New York.
