The year is 1843 when six-year-old Monette, the pampered and beloved daughter of a French Creole sugar planter, is taken to New Orleans and sold into slavery. Sold along with her is Cyrus, a boy big for his age, torn from his mother without a chance to say goodbye.

Together they go to Fox Creek Plantation in English Louisiana, home to the Jensey family. While Cyrus is sent to the fields, Monette becomes the childhood playmate of Kate, the planter's daughter, and catches the eye of Breck, the planter's son. It's easier and safer for Monette to pretend life is normal. That she belongs. To forget her past, even to forget Cyrus, whom she'd loved. But as the years pass, it becomes clear that children of color do not belong in the world of the white elite-at least, not as equals. The brutality and powerlessness of slavery begin to take their toll upon Monette.
