Later when Paul was sharpening knives, Serena slipped back to the wagon. Quietly she stood watching his nimble fingers and the sparks flying off the grindstone. With no one else around, she waited for Paul’s wheel to slow down enough for her to speak softly.

“What’s you want me to know, Mr. Martin?” she asked.

Instantly alert, Libby listened. Had the two pieces of candy been some kind of code between them? Pa had said that Paul worked with the Underground Railroad.

When he spoke, Paul did not look toward Serena. With his gaze still on the knife he was sharpening, he said, “Tell your momma to listen for a signal.”

As if the morning sun had risen within her, a glow spread across Serena’s face. Then, just as quickly as it came, the glow disappeared. Serena’s face went blank.

Turning, she raced through the gate and up the path to the house.
