Sinopsis

The year is 1715.  Pirates patrolled the shores, Indian tribes populated the area, while plantations built by slaves began to rise in splendor among the harsh setting that is the South Carolina coast. This is the story of Mary, a teenager who was born into slavery and who had lived her life as a house slave on an indigo plantation in the coastal swamps of South Carolina. She had worked for someone who would have been considered by most as a benevolent mistress, the wife of the plantation owner. But things quickly changed when the mistress disappeared at sea and Mary was sold by a grieving husband for a mere two gold coins to another master, a master with evil in his heart. As she was sailing away from all she had ever known to an existence with a cruel master, she did the only thing she could. Her escape into the South Carolina swamps took more courage than she thought she had, for the swamps contained something she feared even more than slavery – Indians. But her escape led her to a new life, one she could have never imagined.


Winyah serves up a breathtaking tale of heroism in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Once you begin Mary’s tale of rugged adventure and struggle for freedom and dignity you will be breathless for more.
