Description
Set in the rugged forests of Oklahoma, this sweeping historical novel follows children who seek refuge in the wilderness while powerful adults threaten to take away their homes, families, and futures. As a determined law officer investigates the dangers surrounding these hidden communities, the stories of past and present begin to converge. Inspired by little-known chapters of American history, the novel explores resilience, justice, family, and the enduring strength of children confronting a world that refuses to protect them. Lisa Wingate’s vivid, compassionate storytelling brings a forgotten struggle to life through memorable characters and a richly rendered sense of place.
