Description
In 1875, May Dodd, a woman committed to an asylum for defying societal norms, seizes a perilous opportunity for freedom: to join a secret government initiative that sends women to marry Cheyenne warriors. Her journey west plunges her into a world of breathtaking adventure, caught between a passionate romance with a young army captain and her destined marriage to the great chief Little Wolf. This novel masterfully explores themes of cultural collision, personal identity, and the complex choices faced by women navigating vastly different lives and loyalties. Jim Fergus crafts a compelling narrative with immense insight and sensitivity, delivering a superb tale of sorrow, suspense, exultation, and triumph.
