Reviews

[Kaitlyn Wadsworth · Rating 5 out of 5]

I have read this book twice. I am not one to reread books, but this one was emotional and enthralling. Just as good the second time around. It gave insight into the lifestyle and culture of Red Indians, all wrapped up in a gripping but satisfying story.
