Soaring Eagle — Stephanie Grace Whitson

After the battle of Little Big Horn, newly widowed LisBeth King Baird returns to Lincoln, Nebraska, only to discover that her mother is also gone. Grieving, she must pick up the threads of life and begin again.

With her world shattered by the violence between the Sioux and whites, LisBeth's rebellious heart finds little comfort in the Christianity that sustained her mother through so many trials.

Will there ever be another man who will love her and be proud to marry a woman of mixed parentage? And what will she do if she comes face-to-face with her half-brother, the Sioux warrior, Soaring Eagle? Would LisBeth be able to forgive if she knew that Soaring Eagle now holds the gold locket her young husband wore when he died at Little Big Horn?
