Infidel By JJ Argus

In nineteenth-century Ireland, a young woman named Erin Fitzpatrick was known for her scientific curiosity. Following the death of her wealthy father, his business partner was unexpectedly named as the heir to the family fortune. Erin faced arrest on dubious charges and was secretly taken away by ship before she could voice her objections.

She was sold into slavery on the Barbary Coast, where she struggled to survive amidst the harsh realities of her situation and learned the brutal customs imposed by her captors. Erin's life became increasingly precarious, subject to the whims of various masters, including cunning Arabs, cruel Englishmen, and stern Africans. Ultimately, she found herself in America, enslaved on a plantation.
