A novel by

 
 
In 1643, Susanna Hutchinson, daughter of religious firebrand Anne Hutchinson, moves to the wilderness near Long Island Sound, so her mother would not be persecuted for her beliefs and statements. Mother's visions have led the family in and out of trouble, and now have brought them to this isolated land, where the Dutch and native tribes are at war. One terrifying September afternoon, Lenape warriors descend upon the farm, massacre the family, and take Susanna captive. As they carry her off, someone calls her name. Someone besides Susanna has survived. Who is it? When will she be rescued?

This novel combines a compelling story and meticulous research in a rich, vivid reimagining of Susanna Hutchinson's fascinating life.
