Publisher's Summary

The year is 1722. A child is born on the isolated island of Ospo off the Georgia coast. In the midst of General Oglethorpe's vision for this new land and the emerging townships of Frederica and Savannah, four lives entwine together on this island like the woven fronds in a sea-grass basket—the orphaned Irish girl born free of hate or prejudice, a war-ravaged British soldier seeking forgiveness and absolution, a runaway Gullah slave girl desperate for a word of kindness on the wind, and a Creek Indian warrior searching for answers about this intrusion onto his homeland. What they learn from this wild innocent girl, and from each other, will change their lives forever.

A new birth, a new country, and the elements—water, wind, fire, and earth—entwine to teach one thing: Love conquers all. Love sees beyond borders. There is no ignorance in love.
