Twelve summers after the earlier child-captivity crisis, the Iroquoian nations remain divided by warfare. Atotarho, the feared leader of the People of the Hills, expands his power through terror, captive-taking and the destruction of villages, preparing a conflict that could overwhelm the entire region.

Odion, Wrass, Tutelo, Baji and Zateri have grown into adults shaped by enslavement and loss. Their alliance becomes the core of resistance to Atotarho, but stopping him requires them to confront old loyalties and decide whether personal vengeance can be set aside for the survival of peoples who still regard one another as enemies.
