The war was over. The chains weren't.

Set in Reconstruction-era Louisiana in 1866, UNBOUND is a sweeping literary novel that explores the enduring trauma of slavery and the false hope of freedom in a South unwilling to change.

Four lives intersect in the violent aftermath of the Civil War: Julia Rose Till, a mixed-race woman born into bondage but raised in her master's house under privilege and wealth; her formerly enslaved husband, Joseph Fontaine, a man navigating hope alongside fear and doubt about his newfound freedom; Jeremy Twomey, son of an enslaver and haunted by the suffering endured on his family's plantation who returns to its ruins for redemption-and reckoning; and Charmagne Elle Boudreaux, a wealthy French dressmaker who arrives from France determined to disrupt the violent legacies of the past by using her wealth and influence.
