Kindred, by Octavia E. Butler.
It’s 1976, and a newly married African-American woman named Dana celebrates her twenty-sixth birthday by time traveling to a Maryland slave plantation in 1815.
Phew.
On her first visit back to 1815, she saves a young boy named Rufus from drowning.
On her next visit back in time, Dana learns that the child she saved is her kin, and…
Well, I’m not going to give any more away.
Not right now, anyway.
I’m also in the middle of a short story, Who’s Afraid of Nero Wolfe?
This fun story is written by Loren D. Estleman and is featured in the June 2008 Ellery Queen Mystery Magazine.
Good reading.
