The third novel in Muriel Elwood's classic western saga, which began with Heritage of the River, but a story that stands on its own as a stunning, historical adventure. Back in print for the first time in 75 years.
It's the early 1700s. Red-haired twins Elise & Antoine de Brievaux are pioneers struggling to survive in the great north, an unexplored territory seething with danger yet full of opportunity and wonder, on the eve of a bloody war. An unforgettable, sprawling, historical adventure full of rip-roaring action, shocking violence, exhilarating triumphs and heart-breaking emotion.
