The Slocum family of Northeastern Pennsylvania are the best of the white settlers, peace-loving Quakers who believe that the Indians hold the Light of God inside. It is from this good-hearted family that Frances is abducted during the Revolutionary war. As the child's terror subsides, she is slowly drawn into the sacred work and beliefs of her adoptive mother and of all the women of these Eastern tribes. Frances becomes Maconakwa, the Little Bear Woman of the Miami Indians. Then, long after the Indians are beaten and their last hope, Tecumseh, is killed, the Slocums hear word of their long-lost daughter and head out to Indiana to meet their beloved Frances. But for Maconakwa, it is a moment of truth, the test of whether her heart is truly a red one.

Gisela of Steinland was born without color. Behind her back, servants whisper that she is a moon child, a child of the devil. Albino. But as a royal daughter of King Arnold the Red, Gisela is still good for two things: forging marriage alliances and birthing children-sons, of course. If only Gisela did not look like a ghost, her father could have married her off years ago. Instead, her first betrothal started a ten-year-war he is determined to win at all costs, even if he has to bring her out of hiding to do it. Bloodless Kristoff, the savage Krongon commander to the north, does not care what Gisela is, only that she is Steinland's heir. His last kill. With her spilled blood, he can end his revenge on the Reds once and for all. Desperate, Gisela's father is forced into an alliance with a king he despises, and Gisela finds herself betrothed once again, this time to an old brute. Unwilling to be the sacrificial lamb, she goes on the run, throwing herself into a fight for her life, a battle between three kingdoms, and the deep longing to be loved. Can the girl who started the war find a way to end it?

A captivating debut, introducing a spirited young heroine coming of age in coastal Maine during the early 1960s. When her mother disappears during a weekend trip, Florine Gilham's idyllic childhood is turned upside down. Until then she'd been blissfully insulated by the rhythms of family life in small town Maine: watching from the granite cliffs above the sea for her father's lobster boat to come into port, making bread with her grandmother, and infiltrating the summer tourist camps with her friends. But with her mother gone, the heart falls out of Florine's life and she and her father are isolated as they struggle to manage their loss. Both sustained and challenged by the advice and expectations of her family and neighbors, Florine grows up with her spirit intact. And when her father's past comes to call, she must accept that life won't ever be the same while keeping her mother vivid in her memories. With Fannie Flagg's humor and Elizabeth Stroud's sense of place, this debut is an extraordinary snapshot of a bygone America through the eyes of an inspiring girl blazing her own path to womanhood.
