(3) YA Slavery is over in late-nineteenth-century Georgia, but freedom is elusive for Cy Williams. Kidnapped and sent to labor on a chain gang, he's fettered physically and mentally. After his father comes to visit, all Cy can think about is escaping, no matter what the cost. Vividly set in an often overlooked historical period, the story has a grittiness well suited to its subject.
