Having been committed to an insane asylum by her blue-blood family for the crime of loving a man beneath her station, May finds that her only hope for freedom and redemption is to participate in a secret government program whereby women from "civilized" society become the brides of Cheyenne warriors. What follows is a series of breathtaking adventures-May's brief, passionate romance with the gallant young army captain John Bourke; her marriage to the great chief Little Wolf; and her conflict of being caught between loving two men and living two completely different lives."Fergus portrays the perceptions and emotions of women...with tremendous insight and sensitivity."-Booklist"A superb tale of sorrow, suspense, exultation, and triumph." -Winston Groom, author of Forrest Gump
