Worlds Collide Along the Shores of the Outer Banks
Immerse yourself in the what if questions related to the Lost Colony of Roanoke. What if an English boy and a native girl met in the wilderness? The push-and-pull between two very different worlds begins as one seeks simple friendship and the other struggles to trust. And can itdare theyallow it to be more?
Sparks fly between Mushaniq, free-spirited daughter of Manteo, and Georgie Howe, whose father was brutally mu*dered by undiscovered native warriors before theyd been on Roanoac Island a full week. As Georgie struggles to make sense of his life and to accept that not all they call savage are guilty of his fathers death, Mushaniq grapples with her own questions about who Manteo has become. As tentative friendship becomes more, forged in the fire of calamity and attack upon their community, both must decide whether the One True God is indeed who He claims to be and whether He is worthy of their trust.
