Description: In a remote cabin, Skye Macdonald lived in a special world where her mixed blood was a blessing, a loving symbol of her parents' union. She grew strong and healthy, tall like her grandmother, and she learned the ways of the Highlanders and the Lakota. But then the steel-springed lunge of a mountain lion took her mother from her, starting her on a journey toward a destiny she could never have imagined. Macdonald knew that a young girl who would soon be a woman was more than a grieving old man could handle. So he took his daughter to the summer camp of Turtle Woman's band, where Skye could learn from her grandmother the ways of womanhood. But what Skye learns of love and revenge will be of far greater consequence both for her and the Lakota than the unveiling of a ceremonial wedding dress. Her mother's people believe that her birth under a comet, one of the "Shifting Stars", makes her the "great woman warrior" of the prophecy. Skye's strength and skill grow rapidly, and soon she must face this destiny - learning finally that to be a woman warrior has little to do with fighting, and everything to do with spirit.
