About this ebook

Like many other contemporary Cape Cod communities, Mashpee is a place divided among linesaffluence, race, heritage, and history. It will take nothing less than the selfless actions of a few pioneers to change the unchangeable.

Tobin Horvath knows the pain of life in such a divided community. Two centuries earlier, his peoples land was swindled away by European settlers. Now, he and the other members of the Wampanoag nation work to win their land back, but its an uphill fight. Tensions are at the boiling point between the whites and the indigenous peoples, and no matter how much his Caucasian girlfriend, Laurie Matthews, tries to reassure him, he knows there is trouble on the horizon. Aware of her own familys prejudice, Laurie must conceal their love.

Tobin and Laurie escape to Big Medicine Wheel, Wyoming, where she truly comes to understand Tobins peaceful relationship with the beauty and serenity of nature. But that sense of serenity is shattered when they returnand Laurie finds herself the target of hatefulness. Tobin sees the unhappiness and conflict in Lauries eyes, so he makes a decision to save them both.

Despite Tobins effort though, it only makes matters worse. Then when Laurie learns of her mothers dark secret, her life continues to spiral downwardand tragedy awaits.
