In the early 1800s, Rachel Greenhow, a young Quaker, goes missing in the Canadian wilderness. Unable to accept the disappearance, her brother Mark leaves his farm in England, determined to bring his sister home.
What follows is a gripping account of Mark's odyssey and his travels with the voyageurs - the men who canoe Canada's fur-trade route. As adventure and discovery propel the plot forward, Elphinstone takes the reader back in time and intertwines the story with enduring themes of love, war and family ties.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Canongate BooksISBN-13:9781841955018ISBN-10:1841955019UPC:9781841955018Book Category:FictionBook Subcategory:Historical, World Literature, Family LifeBook Topic:England, SiblingsSize:7.70 x 5.10 x 1.30 inchesWeight:0.75Product ID:SCGRAQ3XEK
