Plot

In 1783, Dr. Carlos Morales, a former indentured servant turned physician, inherits a large Georgia plantation from a wealthy planter named Jason Carver. Carver's dying wish was to see Carlos transform the estate into a haven for free men, challenging the prevailing societal norms. Conflict arises as Carlos faces opposition from Nancy, Jason Carver’s daughter, who is initially distrustful of his intentions. Despite their differences, Carlos and Nancy are drawn together by a mutual desire to honor the late Carver’s vision.

As Carlos strives to implement Jason's progressive ideals, he encounters fierce resistance from established elites and political rivals who threaten his life and the wellbeing of those he aims to help. Allegiances shift and betrayals unfold as the characters navigate the treacherous landscape of post-Revolutionary War America. Carlos’s medical expertise comes into play, seeking to combat a smallpox outbreak that jeopardizes the community. Faced with mounting obstacles, Carlos and Nancy must decide what sacrifices they are willing to make to uphold justice and see the dream of a more equitable society come to fruition.
