Summary
Wounded in a vicious attack on his village by British soldiers, 14-year-old Saxso awakens to discover his mother and two sisters have been taken prisoner. On his own, he sets out to track his family and their captors through the rugged Canadian wilderness. The author of more than 70 books for children and adults and the winner of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Native Writers Circle of the Americas, Joseph Bruchac draws on his Abenaki cutural heritage to bring a little-known episode from colonial history to life.
