Their mocha-skinned love child, Lilly, is banished to Savannah, longing to know her birth story. Soon Lilly falls prey to Baroness Genevieve, wearer of the mysterious Bloodstone Ring.

In a tale of betrayal, kidnapping, and harrowing illegal slave trade, nine-year-old Lilly runs for her life with life-changing adventures along the way. Can God equip Katelyn and her lawyer-beau, Andrew, to withstand the dark powers of the Bloodstone Ring and the brutal intent of the evil slave trading Dutchman? Or will Lilly’s saviors arrive too late?
