When Pocahontas was two summers old, the SkyKeepers erased her mother's name from the tribe's history. Her father encouraged it, as he encouraged many things--for her safety. He couldn't have another chief's wife taken by the things of the newworlders, lost to their treachery, their diseases. So he married her to Kocoum instead.
For years, Pocahontas has given her life to others: to her distant father, to her inflexible husband, to her brother and her tribe. Now newworlders invade her forest, strange pale visitors that follow magic spinners over seas and record their histories in curving letters-letters which may prove to be her closest link to her mother. Discovering a past she didn't know existed, Pocahontas will risk her marriage, her family, her tribe, and her chiefdom to uncover the truth.
