Synopsis

Drifted Back in Time tells the story of a 19th-century love that crosses the boundaries of race and class. Emily, a young slave, is purchased by the caring Hoover family who raise her as one of their own. But as she grows, she finds herself unprepared to meet the changing expectations of both Master and Madam Hoover. Will she be able to provide a future for her children -a future that enables each to decide whether to "pass for white"or embrace their heritage? This story of love and sacrifice is seen through the eyes of Tyara Nordstrom, a descendant plagued by nightmares of her family's past. She journeys back to learn the truth about her origins and is ultimately forced to face her own fears. Drifted Back in Time presents a unique perspective on life in the 19th century when one drop of blood could condemn you to a life of servitude.
