1879, Mississippi. Young dreamer Lettie may have her head in the stars, but her body is on a covered wagon heading westward. Her father, Thomas, promises that Nebraska will be an opportunity for their family to claim the independence they've strived for over generations on their very own plot of land. But Thomas's hopes -- and mouth -- are bigger than his ability to follow through. His desire for control overpowers his common sense. With few supplies and even less money, the only thing that feels certain is danger. Although free from slavery, Lettie; her mother, Sylvia; and young teacher Philomena are still constrained by poverty, limited access to opportunity, and restrictions put on women. But will they even survive the perils of their journey to fight these barriers?
