Book
The Dawn Country
First published 2011
After Koracoo and Gonda recover their children from Gannajero, they learn that Wrass and other captives remain in the child trader’s camp. Their pursuit continues through winter forests where former enemies have also lost children and must decide whether cooperation is possible.
A battle-worn Mohawk war chief and a healer join the rescue attempt, while Wrass tries to organise the children from inside captivity. The novel uses their fragile alliance to show how shared grief can challenge entrenched warfare without erasing the mistrust created by generations of raids and revenge.
