"It has been a while since I read this book, but I can still vividly remember it. The story captured me from the start and held me till the end. The story of Cynthia Ann Parker was one that broke my heart when it came to an end. It is sometimes graphic in it's portrayal of life and the cruelty that humans can inflict on other humans but it also has tender moments."

    " A really fascinating look into the lives of Indians and a white girl kidnapped by the Indians in the 1800s. Some parts are disturbing because of how violent the Indians were--no wonder they were sometimes called savages--but I really enjoyed it anyway. "

    " My friend pressed the cheapest looking mass paperback in my hand and said, "Trust me--don't judge it by how it looks--it's such a fantastic story!" And it is. I met the author a couple of years ago by chance at an event in St. Mary's City, MD. That was pretty cool. "
