Liz Spocott is a captured runaway slave, shot and near death, and shackled to other runaway slaves in the attic of the notorious slave-catcher Patty Cannon. The ancient nameless woman she is bound to reveals 'the Code', a fiercely guarded, cryptic means of communication for slaves on the run. When Liz escapes once again, Denwood Long, a troubled slave-catcher and waterman, is coaxed out of retirement to break the Code and track down Liz, whose extraordinary dreams of tomorrow have created a freedom-seeking furore among the once complacent slave community. The mysterious disappearance of two children, one white, one black, seeds an explosive ending. Filled with rich history - much of the story is drawn from historical events - and told in McBride's signature lyrical style, SONG YET SUNG, brings into full view a world long misunderstood in American fiction: how slavery worked, and the haunting choices beneath the surface, pressing both whites and blacks to search for relief in a world where all seemed to lose their moral compass. This is a story of tragic triumph, violent decisions, and unexpected kindness.

I really enjoyed reading this book. Mr. McBride is an excellent writer, he gets the reader involved to the point where once you start reading you can't put the book down until you finish it.

Mystery & History Abound
What a good read!!! I was mesmerized by the main character and could not read fast enough as to what would happen next. It was a good lesson in history as well as a good mystery. It is one of those books that deserves another read which I plan to do in June 2010. Excellent!!!!!
