Deliverance Creek
DELIVERANCE CREEK is a drama set in Missouri during the Civil War. Similar to many around her, Belle (Lauren Ambrose) has fallen on hard times since her husband left home to fight for the Confederacy, and two years without word from him leaves her no option but to assume he's dead. Since finding happiness with the town's deputy, Nate (Wes Ramsey), this widowed mother of three is cautiously hopeful about the future, but when a corrupt bank owner calls in the loan on her ranch, she's faced with an awful choice to save what's hers. Meanwhile, her brother, Jasper (Christopher Backus), returns to town with his band of outlaws and plans to rob a Union payroll changing hands in Deliverance Creek, drawing the suspicion of Belle's lecherous neighbor (Barry Tubb) and eventually costing Belle dearly. Her younger sister Hattie (Caitlin Custer) risks everything to support the Underground Railroad movement, which brings escaped slave Kessie (Yaani King) to Belle's home and may provide the key to her mission of revenge.
