Summary: Carrie Talbot is the daughter of a missionary and is thrilled and excited when her parents accept the offer to come and work at the Indian mission started by her uncle. But as the Talbot family journeys across the American West, a sudden raid rips Carrie away from her parents and leaves her alone in the hands of the Cheyenne Indians. As time and distance separate her from her family even more, Carrie clings closely to the only possession she was able to save: her family’s Bible. But there are those who hate her and what she teaches, and Carrie’s life may be at risk.
