The Murrasonsā Barn
By Henrietta DuCap
In 1858, with the nation on the brink of civil war, the violence in āBleeding Kansasā festers like a raw wound, a territory torn in two over the issue of slavery.
When her family discovers an injured woman hiding in their barn, eleven-year-old Joyce Murrason must keep the secret from her best friend. Turns out Eliza Enstromās father is already hunting the woman escaping slavery, with the Circle S brand on her shoulder, and a $100 reward for Mama Tinaās capture.
