Wixumlee Is My Salvation by Georgia Mullen
Dog Ear Publishing

Tess’ story continues after a brutal fight with slave catchers turns the once brazen young woman cowardly. When her friend is kidnapped, Tess becomes entangled in the daring slave rescues of the Underground Railroad. Sadly, her lack of skills and personal terrors make her barely acceptable to a militant gang of abolitionists. Turned cowardly by bloodshed on the towpath, Tess struggles to win back her friend and regain her own lost courage. Wixumlee Is My Salvation, the second book in Georgia Ann Mullen’s Canal Tales Series, is available now.
