Kidnapping, torment, terror and finally a daring excape that lasted a 1000 miles back home. Not extirely predictable, you need to read to the end....” see full review » see other reviews » |
“this was one book that while reading it I had to take a break because I physically could not read it. I was crying so bad, I couldn't see the page. BUT- definately worth the effort of reading. What an amazing woman!”

With that said, I admit that I had a hard time with some of the "earlier" books' characterization of Native American culture while celebrating the victorious main character (who was usually white)”
