Publisher's Note In a world where the tribal ways of the Crow Indians are under attack, a man who calls the Crow his brothers raises two young sons. One of them will grow up to love and marry a white woman--a fateful choice which will endanger not just his family, but the Crow nation itself.
Through the remarkable DeGeer family, this extraordinary novel introduces us to an almost forgotten people wrested from their tribal ways and forced into a new life on a rapidly changing frontier. The intricacies of Crow Indian culture are as fascinating as the harrowing scenes of warfare and tragedy that befall this collection of memorable characters. Renee DeGeer, a lusty French Canadian who now calls the Crow his brothers, raises two strong sons: Jacques, Renees natural born; and Nicolas, who is adopted by the DeGeer's. The young boys soon outgrow the mischief of their childhood and develop into strong warriors. But when Jacques takes a brave white woman as his wife, passions erupt, and one will terrible secret threatens not only to tear the fabric of this close-knit family but the Crow Nation as well.
