A gripping 20th-century historical fiction novel of survival, sacrifice, and the search for redemption.
In 1916, Clessie Bonaparte knows only a life of suffering on her father's Midwest farm. Following the mysterious death of her Ojibwe mother and enduring her white father's brutality, a pregnant Clessie makes a fateful decision: she must flee to save herself and her unborn child.
A Journey from the Midwest to the Rugged West Her escape takes her to the untamed landscape of northern Arizona. Haunted by the terrors of her past, Clessie makes a choice she believes is the only way to protect her baby from a similar fate. Retreating into the forest with the intention to vanish forever, her path eventually crosses with Isaac McCaslin, the foreman of a cattle ranch.
Healing and Reckoning As Isaac's protective nature frightens and beguiles her, Clessie begins the hard work of reclaiming her life and reckoning with the father she left behind and the secrets of her past.
