Song Yet Sung

From the New York Times bestselling author of The Good Lord Bird, winner of the 2013 National Book Award for Fiction, Five-Carat Soul, and Kill 'Em and Leave, a James Brown biography.

In the days before the Civil War, a runaway slave named Liz Spocott breaks free from her captors and escapes into the labyrinthine swamps of Marylandâ€™s eastern shore, setting loose a drama of violence and hope among slave catchers, plantation owners, watermen, runaway slaves, and free blacks. Liz is near death, wracked by disturbing visions of the future, and armed with â€œthe Code,â€ a fiercely guarded cryptic means of communication for slaves on the run. Lizâ€™s flight and her dreams of tomorrow will thrust all those near her toward a mysterious, redemptive fate.

Filled with rich, true detailsâ€”much of the story is drawn from historical eventsâ€”and told in McBrideâ€™s signature lyrical style, Song Yet Sung is a story of tragic triumph, violent decisions, and unexpected kindness.
