New York: Washington Square Press (1999)

As new in paperback.


Beautiful, fearless, and tormented, forty-five year old Dalva has lived a life of lovers and adventures. Longing for the Nebraska prairie where she was born and for the son she gave up for adoption years before, she returns to the half Sioux lover of her youth, and to her great-grandfather, whose journals recount the annihilation of the Plains Indians. On the way she discovers a story that stretches from the Civil War to Wounded Knee to Vietnam -- and finds the balm to heal her wild and wounded soul.
