Publisher's Synopsis
It is the 11th century, a time of struggle and hardship in what will become the province of Newfoundland. Thrand, a Viking boy from Greenland, is proud to have been chosen to go on a voyage to Leifsbudir in Northern Newfoundland. But events take a disastrous turn when Thrand is captured by the Beothuks, the "red ochre people." On which side of the cultural divide will he ultimately stand: with his heritage, or with his new people?
