"New temptations and new dangers threaten the peaceful lives of the Elk-dog People. The wise old medicine man, White Fox, and his impressionable young son, Red Horse, have agreed to guide Captain LeFever of Fort de Chastaigne to Santa Fe, in his quest to establish trade relations with the Spanish. But their destination proves to be an elusive one; Baptiste DuBois, the vicious leader of a band of voyageurs, joins the expedition and cruelly assaults a Mandan Indian woman, trapping LeFever and the People of the plains in the middle of an unwanted blood fued. For young Red Horse, the voyage downriver becomes a journey to manhood as he confronts treachery, passion, and greed that inflame the heart and imperil the survival of his people."
