Description: In 1879 in the New Mexico Territory, the Warm Springs Apaches are engaged in a fierce fight for their land and their freedom. Still, fifteen-year-old Walks Alone hopes to settle down with the young warrior Little Hawk and start her own life. Instead, a surprise attack leaves Walks Alone with a gunshot wound, and separates her and her young brother from their people. Before she can rejoin the Warm Springs band, now fled to Mexico, Walks Alone must use all of her skills to survive many grueling physical trials. Constantly suffering further losses, she battles sickness and injury, capture by U.S. soldiers, and pursuit by Mexican scalp hunters -- only to find herself and her people deeper in peril than ever.
