It's been foretold she will save her people. Can this novice shaman master her art in time to stave off disaster?
Dakota Territory, 1877. Falling Star fiercely guards her tribe. Orphaned at the tender age of two, the selfless twelve-year-old pours herself into learning the chants, myths, and healing secrets of a wise old shaman. But with her apprenticeship incomplete, she feels utterly unprepared for the challenge of her village being struck by smallpox. Confused by a fragmented set of visions, Falling Star clings to the confidence she's built through years of training. And as she puzzles out her totem deer's cryptic guidance, she realizes she must convince the entire tribe to follow a new path forward if any are to survive. Will her undying faith in the Great Spirit help halt the tide of a devastating plague?
