There is immediate tension between Sarah and Black Hawk. His aloofness infuriates her, whilst she stirs up memories he does not want to remember. But the Buffalo has spoken and will not be denied. Sarah decides to ignore Black Hawk, she has much more than his arrogance to worry about; like trying to be accepted into the tribe and being taken seriously and trusted by those around her. Before Sarah realises it, and to Black Hawks dismay, the guiding spirits lead the Holy Man into sealing Sarah’s fate with the tribe. Sarah’s decisions have a profound effect on her family who are soon drawn into a web that could spell disaster for the future of the reservation. This story will take you through a visual waterfall of seasons through garrison towns, prairie and tipis. You will discover how birch bark canoes were made, the process of naming, of herbal medicine and spirituality. Feel the freedom of riding bareback in wild flowers, the quiet cold of winter and the warm community and laughter of a people joined together in one mind. But beware; there are those that do not relish the life they have been born into.

Publisher: Bantam

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 539
Book Description
Only Greg Rucka, the thriller genre’s most fearless writer, would dare create a spy so edgy, so explosive, so extreme, she should be rated X. Tara Chace was once the most dangerous woman alive. And now that the international spy network thinks she’s as good as dead, she’s even more dangerous than ever. Only one thing could coax Tara back into the game: a chance to vindicate herself. The torture and execution of Dina Malikov has set off a cutthroat grab for power in strategically crucial Uzbekistan. Tara’s job is to slip into the country and extract Dina’s pro-Western husband and their young son before they are murdered—by his ruthless sister. But there are a couple of wild cards in the deck, including a missing mobile weapons system that can bring down a commercial airliner, not to mention powerful political careers. Now, as she vanishes into hostile territory with a man who may or may not be what he seems, Tara is going to find out that the war on terror is more terrifying than anyone knows. For in a battle where betrayal is a conventional weapon, loyalty is a weakness, and anyone—even a child—is a legitimate target: it’s every spy, every woman, for herself. Combine a thriller that defies every expectation with a heroine for whom nothing is out of bounds, and the result is Private Wars, a suspense novel so explosively realistic, it should be classified.
