Summary
Having befriended Lizzie, a young girl who lives on an island community founded by former slaves, Turner begins to experience many disapproving looks from those in the community, yet it doesn't change the way he feels and even makes him more determined to stand with her when developers make a shady deal to push Lizzie and her people off their island home.
