A young, under-confident Acadian woman is forced to fight for her family and homeland after they are inhumanly deported by the English. • • • Joséphine Duon has been dreaming about the perfect farm and family with her childhood sweetheart ever since she can remember. It's the way life is meant to go, according to most. As soon as things seem to be going to plan, the power of the Nova Scotian government switches hands, from the Acadians' French allies to the British... Without warning the British arrive at Grand-Pré with a proclamation: all their lands, tenements livestock of all kinds, and all other estates are fortified to the Crown. Acadian crops and homes are set aflame and families are torn apart; many men are imprisoned as rebels and women are forced to sail to American colonies. For Joséphine, money and respect are hard-earned within the colonies as she tries to return to her family. Governor of Nova Scotia, Lawrence is a real piece of work and is prepared to do anything to keep Acadians from returning. If she does not find a way to survive such hardships and help collect enough money for a passage home, the Acadians may never see their homeland or loved ones again.
