Jeska doesn't know why her mother keeps the curtains drawn so tightly every day. And what exactly is she trying to drown out when she floods the house with Mozart? What are they hiding from? When Jeska's grandmother accidentally calls her by a stranger's name, she seizes her first clue to uncovering her family's past, and hopefully to all that's gone unsaid. With the help of an old family photo album, her father's encyclopedia collection, and the unquestioning friendship of a stray cat, the silence begins to melt into frightening clarity.

Brasil, 1667. O jovem Francisco, capturado quando criança e entregue à Igreja, vive como coroinha em Porto Calvo e sonha com a liberdade. Ágil e silencioso, explora o vilarejo à noite, pregando peças, vingando os negros mortos no tronco e aterrorizando feitores e senhores de engenho como um fantasma – ou como um nzumbi, em quimbundo, a língua típica de Angola. Até que surge uma oportunidade de fuga, e Francisco a aproveita, dando início a sua jornada para se tornar quem a história não esqueceria: Zumbi dos Palmares, filho de Angola Janga.
