About this ebook

This is a historical novel set in old Quebec In 1637 the French colony at Quebec numbered only a few hundred troops. Cardinal Richelieu held sway in Paris while England was sliding towards civil war. Ownership of the new country was up for grabs as the warring Iroquois and Algonquin tribes chose sides. But when a rare Indian diplomatic mission shows up to discuss peace talks, Meneval de Saint-Denis is faced with an impossible decision: follow orders from his superiors or support an old friend.
