As the American Civil War draws near, Nate MacGregor knows he must fight for his Southern homeland. Meanwhile, his cousin Walt in Canada West fears that due to the seizure of a Confederate ship with British envoys on board, Britain and her colonies could be drawn into the war -- on the side of the Confederate South, and slavery. Walt believes slavery is wrong. He could never fight in defense of it. Nate and Walt have never met, but as a country descends into chaos, a runaway slave named Sunday is about to change the cousins' lives forever. Although Nate MacGregor, a young soldier for the confederate army, and his cousin Walt in Canada have never met, their lives are effected by Sunday, a runaway slave.
