It is an alternate history book, set in a present-day alternate universe in which the American Civil War never occurred, with human chattel slavery continuing to be practiced legally in four U. S. States as a result. In the book, the main character, a former slave and bounty hunter working for the U. S. Government, attempts to infiltrate an abolitionist organization known as the "Underground Airlines" (a reference to the historical Underground Railroad). The book was an Indie Next pick for July 2016 and a New York Times bestseller. The book won the 2016 Sidewise Award for Alternate History. " (from Wikipedia) .
