(3) YA An unlikely trio of children is thrown together during the final hours of the Civil War. Eleven-year-old fugitive slave Luke becomes the leader, guiding nine-year-old freed slave Daylily and seven-year-old Caswell (son of a plantation owner) on their difficult journey north. Told from each child's perspective, the story captures the fears and dangers faced by young people caught in an adult war.
