Synopsis
When her father is falsely imprisoned in England on a slave-trading charge, Catherine Newbury flees to Philadelphia with trusted servants, taking a new name and a new trade as a sought-after seamstress. Her carefully built disguise is threatened when Carter Danby, an architect she once met back in England, seeks her out for a design consultation — drawn to her without quite placing why she seems familiar. Catherine must weigh a growing attachment to Carter against the secret she is keeping and her hope of freeing her wrongfully imprisoned father.
