In 17th-century Providence, a Nipmuc tribesman is fatally stabbed in a robbery by a white runaway indentured servant. With their capture of the killer and his gang, the new Plymouth Colony faces its first trial. Would a jury of white men be tempted to protect one of their own, over the life of a native who had once fought against them? Tobey Pearl explains how the 12 rendered a groundbreaking judicial decision that forever set the standard for American justice, and her cast includes William Bradford, Myles Standish, Roger Williams, and John Northrop.
