This story takes you into the midst of the harsh frontier life during
the year 1777. Much unrest dwelt between
settlers and Native Americans wanting to claim the same lands. To further fuel the discord was the colonists
stand to be free of British rule. While
Native Americans were caught in the crossfire of this revolution they were also
enlisted on both sides of the battle.
The heroine of this book is Tempe.
She is not your typical damsel in distress. Tempe is a strong, capable frontiers woman
who can shoot, hunt, track, and guide as well as her brother and father. Through her loss, trauma, fight for survival
and confrontation of her own emotional scars we see early America in all its
raw bleakness and beauty.
I obtained this book free from the publishers.
