Little Missy is the story of a heroic young woman who represents the generation who fought against the injustice of slavery with their ideals of freedom and equality.
The story begins when Little Missy, the Baron of Araruna‘s daughter, and Rodolfo, the son of the family‘s lawyer, return from the provincial capital having completed their studies. This is exactly two years before the "Golden Law" when Republican ideals made abolition a near certainty.
The movement has already been victorious in most cities, but the town of Araruna is one of the last bastions of slavery. Here, the Baron of Araruna imposes his will on the entire population to prevent the spread of abolitionist ideas. That is, until Little Missy returns, bringing with her anti-slavery notions of her own; and becomes the great political and ideological adversary of her own father.
Little Missy falls in love with Rodolfo when she discovers that he is not only an abolitionist but an activist, who, in the still of the night, enters the slave compounds, opens the gates and releases the slaves, later handing them over to organizations that help them on their way to freedom. Problems arise when her father discovers that Rodolfo is on the opposing side.
