A river escape tale follows a man and a young woman, assumed enslaved, fleeing by boat toward a hidden creek on the Missouri side. They discuss pursuers, river dangers, and a fugitive network guiding slaves to freedom while avoiding a pursuing steamer and a vigilant lookout.
In the night voyage, the boat vanishes from its moorings as the crew seeks a missing party. The narrator, Rene, and Sam the slave confront danger and secrecy while plotting to overtake Amos Shrunk and rescue or confront the pursued group along the Mississippi flow.
