Bonhist: Cheyenne Medicine Woman

A girl born of Spirit Mountain. A woman shaped by war. A healer whose courage defies conquest.

Born on sacred Spirit Mountain and marked by powerful medicine, Bonhist comes of age in a world being torn apart by the advance of the white man. The daughter of a Cheyenne warrior slain at Sand Creek and a fierce woman archer, Bonhist is more than a survivor-she is a visionary whose wisdom reaches far beyond her years.

As the Sioux and Cheyenne face betrayal, displacement, and relentless pursuit by pony soldiers, Bonhist leads her people not with brute force, but with insight, courage, and spiritual strength. From the thunder of the Little Bighorn to the long, perilous journey toward Indian Territory, she must protect her family, outwit enemies, and preserve the soul of her people. Rich in historical detail and grounded in rarely told Native perspectives, Bonhist: Cheyenne Medicine Woman is an unforgettable story of resilience, identity, and the quiet power of a young woman destined to become a healer in a time of great loss.
