When Nora White is drugged by her friend, she is forced to deal with the harsh reality of life in the North. She meets Keisha, and the women catch a ride to The Den, a gambling and numbers hole-in-the-wall in Jacobsville. Nora's new buddies are hustlers, but they're down to Earth and more like family than the elite of Harlem. She is introduced to Marcus Garvey's Universal Negro Improvement Association (U.N.I.A.) when they take her to Liberty Hall. Meanwhile, Nora has no idea her father has been arrested, and back home, Molly is hanging on by a thread. When the community discovers the truth of the alleged crime, they devise a way to get Gideon out of jail, but their actions could mean life or death for everyone involved. Will Nora come to her senses and return home in time to help the family, or will her naivet lead her astray once again?
