In the forests of Barbados, Rachel is running for her life. She has just escaped from the cane fields of Providence, where she and those she loved endured long years of servitude. All that was meant to change with the 1834 Emancipation Act, but relief turned to betrayal when it was revealed that the freedom they had been promised was a lie; that instead all they were offered was slavery by another name, as those working the fields of Providence were to be branded apprentices, but not freed. So she ran.
River Sing Me Home tells the tale of Rachel's journey to find her lost children, no matter what dangers await her on the river and the sea beyond.
