Wyndward Passion

At Wyndward plantation, the Turners grew tobacco and raised horses, but slaves were their most profitable product. Jonathan Turner mated bucks to wenches and produced prime black stock for sale.

To his son, Fitzjohn, also, blacks were subhuman chattel, except for one copper-skinned girl whom he cherished with a passion. Between white and black, such passion is called lust. Between Fitzjohn and Nina, lust ripened into love, and the very foundations of the Turner empire shook in the fury of the Wyndward Passion.
