Vikki’s Musings
This is an excellent novel of frontier life during the turbulent years of the American Revolutionary war. I thoroughly enjoyed the character arch for Morrow. Because of the huge loss she suffered at the hands of Indians when she was 5 years old, she was very biased, so it took her a long time to move past that and to recognize her love for Red-Shirt.
Red-Shirt is a character that is a true joy to get to know. Ms. Frantz does an incredible emoting his feelings since the book is written in Morrow's POV. His actions spoke to me in an astonishing way. His determination to protest Morrow touched my heart. His faith journey is inspiring.
I'm so pleased I found this amazing novel of a young woman's journey into adulthood. I highly recommend this excellent book. Happy reading!
