1540. Six hundred Spanish conquistadors march through the American Southeast, searching for gold and leaving ash behind them. They have never met a man like Tascalusa.Ember, stolen as a boy from West Africa and enslaved in Spain, is dragged along in de Soto's army - one more chained body counted among the baggage. When the expedition reaches the court of Tascalusa, a paramount chief the Spanish cannot intimidate, break, or read, Ember becomes the only man trusted by both sides - and the last witness to a chief's impossible gamble.What follows is the true, forgotten history of the Battle of Mabila, one of the deadliest battles ever fought on American soil, told by the man history never thought to ask.A story of survival, memory, and a fire that would not go out.
