Rise of the Pale Moon

Set against the backdrop of the Revolutionary War era in South Carolina, this is a compelling tale of three young women from distinct backgrounds: an indentured servant from London, a chattel slave, and a Catawba Indian captured by the Cherokee and traded into slavery.

Forced to navigate complex relationships with each other and with the master and his family, they must choose between remaining in their known circumstances or risking a daring escape that could change the course of the war – and their lives.
