Based on actual events, A Porous Border is a sweeping drama of the turbulent era that changed North America. A chance encounter leads a young Canadian into the maelstrom of the American Civil war. As Northern armies weave a path of destruction across the south, an embattled Confederacy launches a campaign of terror and insurrection from the British colonies and drives the colonies toward their own Canadian Confederation. Beyond the battlefield lies the shadowy world of conspiracy where soldiers, spies, and lovers ride the shifting tides of conflict; a black female recruiter for the union army, a Confederate agent, an aging soldier of fortune, politicians who fear for the future, and ordinary people drawn by money, cause or swept forward by forces beyond their control.
