About the book

From primary documents, including court and census records and interviews with family members, author Tonya Bolden pieces together the events of Sarah Rector's life and the lives of those around her when oil was discovered on her land allotment, making her wealthy. This book recounts the story of the 1914 disappearance of eleven-year-old Sarah Rector, an African American who was part of the Creek Indian people and whose land had made her wealthy.
