Emilie, the 19-year-old daughter of a Sioux mother and a Scottish trader, finds her home destroyed when her clan is caught up in the US-Dakota War of 1862. Her mother is sent to a prisoner-of-war camp, and Emilie sets out to find her father, who has been missing since the beginning of the war. With help from two new and unlikely friends, Eustis and Anders, she begins a treacherous and emotional journey to track him down. Will she find him? Will her mother be set free? And will Emilie be able to rebuild the home she's lost?

A colorful, touching, gripping story

A delightful read. A colorful, touching, gripping story of 19th century Native American life, with hope, love, grief, pain, and more. Caught me up with parts of history about which I had only limited knowledge. Its real-life themes – like racism, ego, anger, stealth, family conflict, uncertainty, emotional development – resonate with today's world.

The intriguing climax so enthralled me – and I was so wrapped up with the characters – that I stayed up much later than I should have to finish the last 50 pages to learn the outcome.
