Will she survive?

Hold onto your hat as well as your heart!  I read this book about 10 years ago and it still scares the living daylights out of me.  

Based on truth Mary Ingles, a pregnant frontierswoman, literally follows the river after being captured by the Shawnee Indians.  Desperate to return home, Mary is not alone in her escape (her trail partner is one of the most memorable parts of the book).

Heart wrenching, thrilling, surprising and at times even funny, Thom will keep you on the edge of your seat and maybe even your sanity.

Caution: Do not pick this up unless you are planning on nothing else.

Happy (not exactly the right word for this selection) Reading
