Set in the Deep South pre Gone with the Wind and the Civil War, The Wedding Gift is a compelling and powerful story of two sisters with two very different destinies.

What if, on your wedding day, you were given your sister - as your slave?

When wealthy plantation owner Cornelius Allen marries off his daughter Clarissa, he presents her with a wedding gift: a young slave woman called Sarah.

The two girls have grown up together but their lives could not have been more different. Clarissa is white and is used to a life of privilege and ease. Sarah is black and is used to a life of slavery and hard work.

When Sarah decides her future lies outside the plantation, it sets in motion a series of events that will have devastating consequences for them both.
