About this listen

Emilie, the 19-year old daughter of a Sioux mother and a Scottish father, finds her home destroyed when her tribe is caught up in the US-Dakota war of 1862. Her mother is sent to a prisoner-of-war camp, and Emilie sets out to find her father, Jack Ferguson, who has been missing since the beginning of the war. With help from two new and unlikely friends, Eustis and Anders, she begins a treacherous and emotional journey to track him down. Along the way, she meets a mysterious figure, Roger Paltrey, from her father's past who seems to know important things about him. Will she trust Roger Paltrey? Will she find her father? Will her mother be set free? And will Emilie be able to rebuild the home she's lost?
