About this listen

Orphaned in the cholera epidemic of 1833, Adria Starr was cared for by a slave named Louis, a man who stayed in Springfield, Kentucky, when anyone with means had fled. A man who passed up the opportunity to escape his bondage and instead tended to the sick and buried the dead. A man who, 12 years later, is being sold by his owners despite his heroic actions. Now 19, Adria has never forgotten what Louis did for her. She's determined to find a way to buy Louis's freedom. But in 1840s Kentucky, she'll face an uphill battle.

Based partly on a true story, Ann H. Gabhart's latest historical novel is a tour de force. The vividly rendered town of Springfield and its citizens immerse listeners in a story of courage, betrayal, and honor that will stick with them long after the final moment.

This was a pleasant break from my usual choice of story. It moved me to tears in parts because it was so lovely in its simplicity of life with faith and truth overcoming the evils of the World. It was not gripping or spellbinding, but it was the kind of easy listening that is sometimes needed in the lives we live in the world we live in!

Sweet and Gentle story.
