It's been two years and sixteen-year-old Hannah is miserable in Boston. She's decided to give up trying to fit into a life she hates and makes plans to return to the farm in Nebraska. However, it seems that Fate has other plans. It's 1861, and the war between the North and South has started. Her brother, Franklin, is being held in a Confederate prison in the South and has been sentenced to hang. A ship with Emily and their grandmother on board has disappeared in the Atlantic Ocean. Hannah knows it's up to her to rescue Franklin.
