Set against the backdrop of post-Civil War Richmond in April 1865, the narrative follows Caleb DeLeon, a wounded Confederate officer, as he returns to his devastated family home. The atmosphere is charged with the complexities of freedom and loss, as he encounters Simon and John, two former slaves who remain in the abandoned house, waiting for the DeLeon family's return. Their interactions explore themes of redemption, identity, and the shifting social landscape of the South during this tumultuous time.
