Two boys grow up side by side. One is born to inherit the plantation. The other is born to be part of it.North Carolina, 1839. Isaac has never known a world beyond the Gatlin plantationor a life in which he belongs to himself. Liam Gatlin, the masters son, has never questioned the world he was born to inherit. From childhood, they are inseparable.When a Quaker tutor arrives to educate Liam, Isaac listens from the edges of the schoolroom, secretly absorbing lessons forbidden to an enslaved boy. His extraordinary intelligence soon becomes impossible to ignore. So does the bond between the two boys. As childhood gives way to manhood, friendship deepens into something far more dangerous. In a society where Isaac can be bought and sold, and where love between two men is unthinkable, the greatest threat to their future may be the world that made one of them master and the other property.Then Isaac learns he is to be sold. What follows will force Liam to confront the institution from which his entire life of privilege has been builtand force Isaac to decide what freedom truly means when even the person he loves has the legal power to own him. Their path ultimately leads north to Connecticut, where Isaac discovers that crossing into free territory is not the same thing as becoming free. Education, the law, racial prejudice, the Underground Railroad, and the lingering instincts of a lifetime in bondage all stand between him and the life he wants. And before he can truly choose Liam, Isaac must answer the hardest question of all: If a man has never been free to leave, can he know whether staying is really his choice?Set against the turbulent years preceding the Civil War, On Free Ground is a sweeping historical novel about slavery and freedom, forbidden love, education, and the profound difference between being granted liberty and learning to possess it. Above all, it is the story of two men born on opposite sides of an unforgiving divideand their struggle to reach the one place where they might finally stand as equals: free ground.©2026 Gregory R.
