From the author of the legendary Dragonard series comes The House at 3 O'Clock, the first volume in the Slaves Without Masters saga. It is a world where the rigid hierarchies of the \"Big House\" are beginning to crumble under the weight of their own cruelty.\n\nThe story follows the lives of the bondservants and masters entangled in the St. Pierre estate, where a single moment of defiance can spark a conflagration. Amidst the rising fever of the Abolitionist movement and the looming shadow of the Civil War, the inhabitants of the plantation find themselves caught in a web of betrayal, secret passions, and sudden violence.\n\nWhen the clock strikes three, the masks of Southern chivalry fall away. Can those bound by the chains of the past find a path to freedom before the plantation—and their lives—are consumed by the coming storm?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48763142308059,"sku":"2026200005364-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/f3159a64-5ff5-47f8-8c02-7ab7ee9c167f.png?v=1778499381","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200005364-secondhand-the-house-at-3-oclock-slaves-without-masters-volume-one","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
