Tale of a white man who is raised by a Sioux tribe after his parents are killed in a Crow attack. His sense of loyalty and identity is repeatedly put into test when conflict arises between the Sioux and the Whites.
The main character here goes through a series of ordeals which place him in an awkward role that is a blend of double agent and diplomat. The whole drama is laid out as a case of bad apples on each side. None of that has the minimal connection to plausible situations: reality is much simpler, or much more complicated, depending on the angle from which you look. Still, it works as a sort cerebral exercise of problem solving, not too boring and not too exciting either.
