Inspired by longburied true stories of enslaved people who dared to fight back, this powerful novel offers a searing portrayal of resistance. From Clay Cane, awardwinning journalist and New York Times bestselling author of The Grift, its a mustread for fans of Colson Whitehead, Jesmyn Ward, and Percival Everett.As turmoil simmers within a divided nation, smoke from another blaze begins to rise. Sparked by individual acts of resistance among those enslaved across the American South, their seemingly disparate rebellions fuel a singular inferno of justice, connecting them in ways quiet at times, explosive at others. As these flames rise, so will they.Luke, quickwitted and perceptive, and Henri, a man of strong and defiant spirit, forge an unbreakable bond at a Virginia plantation called Magnolia Row. Both seek escape from unimaginable cruelty. And sure as the fires of hell, Luke and Henri will leave their mark among the lives they touch...Like Josephine, a young and observant girl who wields silence as her greatest weapon. A witness to Luke and Henris resilience, she listens, watches, and waits.Then theres Charity Butler, inspired by a formerly enslaved man who found his freedom fighting alongside Josephine. At his encouragement, Charity rises up for her life and familyonly to face a deeply unjust system.And finally, there is Nathaniel, who ruthlessly exploits other Black people and mirrors the cruelty of the white men who, like him, are enslavers. A perversion of the system of slavery, his rule is both fragile and contradictory.Burn Down Masters House is a singular tour de force of a novelbreathtaking in scope, compassion, and timeliness that speaks powerfully to our present era.
