Em seu vigésimo sexto aniversário, Dana e seu marido estão de mudança para um novo apartamento. Em meio a pilhas de livros e caixas abertas, ela começa a se sentir tonta e cai de joelhos, nauseada. Então, o mundo se despedaça.

Dana repentinamente se encontra à beira de uma floresta, próxima a um rio. Uma criança está se afogando e ela corre para salvá-la. Mas, assim que arrasta o menino para fora da água, vê-se diante do cano de uma antiga espingarda. Em um piscar de olhos, ela está de volta a seu novo apartamento, completamente encharcada. É a experiência mais aterrorizante de sua vida... até acontecer de novo. E de novo.

Quanto mais tempo passa no século XIX, numa Maryland pré-Guerra Civil – um lugar perigoso para uma mulher negra –, mais consciente Dana fica de que sua vida pode acabar antes mesmo de ter começado.

Work Description

Dana, a modern black woman, is celebrating her twenty-sixth birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana’s life will end, long before it has a chance to begin.
