The year is 1849: Samantha dreams of moving back to New York and becoming a professional musician. Her job was already difficult because of her gender, but being Chinese made it even more difficult.

One day, when a sudden accident destroyed his dream, his life was in great danger. They escaped from the town they were in with a slave named Annamae, who agreed to come with her, but since traveling on the Oregon Trail was dangerous, the two girls disguised themselves as two boys named Sammy and Andy, who were participating in the search for gold in California.
