Descripción de contraportada
Lucy Spencer has been helping fugitive slaves flee to Canada since she was twelve years old. Her family's Ohio home is a station on the Underground Railroad, the secret network of people that helps runaways escape to freedom. Now that she's sixteen, Lucy is thirsty for adventure. When she is asked to stay with the widow Aurelia Mercer and help a family of runaway slaves hiding in the attic, she doesn't hesitate. From one of the fugitives who is pregnant, and from the surprisingly unconventional Miss Aurelia, Lucy learns much about growing up, loving, and standing on her own. But what will Lucy do when she is asked to make the ultimate sacrifice?
