The story of three women, Slight Spoiler alert-so read on at your own risk.. Jemma, a slave, in Maryland, Georgy, an abolitionist, in NYC and Anne May, a slave owner in Maryland. George decides to become a nurse, and, just like that, she's a nurse, seemingly going anywhere she wants to, and telling doctors what should be done. Jemma has a more believable story, escaping Maryland, joining the Union Army (in disguise). Anne May, while a slave owner, and not very pleasant in general, has the most interesting story, it's fun watching her get her due. Except for the Georgy parts, this is an interesting historical fiction, worth a look.
