It's 1958 and Shona Jackson is on the run for her life again, she was forced to flee Mississippi and the town she'd called home. Arriving in Alabama, she hopes to save up enough money to continue her journey to safety, and convinces Jeffrey Ellis, the wealthy co-owner of a machinery plant, to give her a job. There she strikes up a bond with the equally courageous Cuban.
Cuban is on a similar path to Shona. Relentlessly abused because of the color of his skin, his sole ambition is to earn enough to escape to New York, but Ellis's brutal and callous business partner, Larry Bruce, and his racist workforce are hell-bent on making Cuban's life unbearable.

Meet Me at 10 is the second enthralling novel in an epic historical fiction trilogy about a story of secrets too dangerous to confess in a time of cruel, unforgiving and relentless intolerance to difference.
Readers describe it: This is a fantastic book. Captivating storyline that kept me reading every night until I finished it. Been years since a book had me so hooked! I found myself putting the book down and then 5 minutes later picking it back up because I wanted to see what happened next. Just one more page I would say to myself. Brilliant page Turner. Best book I have read in a long time!
