Will Rees faces a moral dilemma when a slaveholder is murdered while attempting to recapture a former slave: should he pursue lawful justice or should he let the killer go free?

When it''s discovered Gilbert was infected with smallpox, and Gilbert''s sister arrives demanding justice and the return of her absconded slaves, Will is torn.
