Sally Parker had heard talk of Indian or "Injun" attacks out West, but that was just talk from around town. Right? Wrong.

Sally embarks on an enthralling, and often dangerous journey when she is kidnaped and taken into the Comanche Tribe. However, the journey isn’t easy, between battles with the increasingly, dedicated, hard-nosed, "war chief," Nakotah Quanah, and trying to fit into a strange society which she feels she doesn’t belong.

Just when things begin to look up, what happens when an enraged mistress wants her servant back and will go through all costs to get her back? Will this kick-off the beginning of many battles for the Comanche with the Texan government or can Sally defuse the situation in time?

Either way Sally is going to have make a life-altering decision that will not only affect her, but maybe for the ‘ayashe’ as well.
