The year is 1722, and Greta Brücke can no longer tolerate life in the American colony of Karlsburg. Having been abused by her cousins once too often, she flees into the wilderness and discovers a way of life she hadn't ever conceived.
Girl-in-the-Water is a visionary among her people, though she leads a lonely life — not just because she has visions, but because she is also an orphan, and is two-spirits. Her life is soon to change; for she is about to encounter a European colonist whose ways are, perhaps, not so different from her own.
But what will happen to their friendship if Greta ever discovers Girl-in-the-Water's deepest secret?
Set 300 years in the past, "Wolves and Cougars" is a novella that's pertinent today. Compact and evocative with vividly-drawn characters, this story will stay with you long after you've read the final page.
