Katsuk, a militant Native American student, kidnaps 13-year-old David Marshall—the son of the US Undersecretary of State. The two flee into the deepest wilds of the Pacific Northwest, where they must survive together as teams of hunters try to track them. David begins to feel a growing bond of respect for his captor, even as he struggles to escape. What the boy does not know, however, is that he has been chosen as an innocent from the white world for an ancient sacrifice of vengeance. And Katsuk may be divinely inspired . . . or simply insane.

Product ReviewI read this story many years ago. Yes, as a previous reviewer stated, it has a sad ending, but so does everyone's life. It is entertaining and from my, admittedly long ago memories, a fast read. I am not a student of Native American folklore but the tidbits presented in this story are an interesting view in to the souls of two men, each as much a captive of the situation as the other.

Product ReviewI regret buying this book. I hate sad endings and stories that contain rape and it is a bit racist. I bought it only because I like Frank's storytelling.
