Perfect for you if...

  • You appreciate literary fiction rooted in historical settings and Indigenous perspectives that challenge traditional narratives.
  • You're drawn to stories about survival and defiance, especially when the protagonist has everything stacked against them.
  • You want character-driven fiction that treats its setting as more than backdrop—where landscape and culture shape the entire story.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced plots with clear resolutions and straightforward character arcs.
  • You're looking for romantic storylines or lighter contemporary settings rather than historical tension and survival themes.
  • You need extensive world-building exposition or prefer stories told from multiple perspectives across timelines.

About this book

A woman known as a witch has created a dangerous medicine. Those who seek her decide she must be killed, but she escapes before they can act. She flees across the Dakota prairie until exhaustion forces her to stop. Turning to face the warriors pursuing her, she has no expectation of survival, yet resolves to resist them to the end. Then thunder sounds.
