Pride and obsession drive the once-free young cane field slave Caroline to sell her body, her medicinal work, and her musical talents, to buy her freedom. Caroline's goal is opposed by her fellow slaves, and set back by betrayals from lovers and owners in nineteenth century St. Croix, the Danish West Indies.
