- Summary
- In 1788 three men converge in the southern woods of what is now Alabama: Cat, an emotionally scarred white man; Bob, a talkative black man fleeing slavery; and Istillicha, who seeks retribution after being edged out of his Creek town's leadership. In the few days they spend together, the makeshift trio commits a shocking murder that soon has the forces of the law bearing down upon them. Sent to pick up their trail, a probing French tracker named Le Clerc must decide which has a greater claim: swift justice or his own curiousity about how three such disparate, desperate men could act in unison. A captivating exploration of how four men grapple with the importance of family, the stain of guilt, and the competing forces of power, love, race, and freedom
