Part of North America’s Forgotten Past
Buy the book from:
Star Shell, daughter of a Hopewell chief, believes that a powerful ceremonial mask is corrupting the clans of the Great Lakes region. She sets out to carry it north to Roaring Water, where she intends to cast it beyond recovery, accompanied by the trader Otter, the runaway Pearl, the warrior Black Skull and the unpredictable Contrary Green Spider.
Their journey follows river and lake trade routes through storms, rival territories and pursuit by those who want the mask’s prestige for themselves. The novel combines a long-distance adventure with a struggle over whether sacred objects serve communities or become weapons in political competition.
