Shadow Path: A High Plains Warrior Novel

by Michael O. Gibbs

In Shadow Path, Michael O. Gibbs’ second High Plains Warrior Novel, he takes us again to the vast wilderness of the Great Northern Plains of 1753 where natives and only a few French trappers lived. It is a tale filled with danger and yearning for family—and it is told by two voices. In the first storyline, Lince, a huge 35-year-old runaway slave, rescues a native woman from her captors. She slowly becomes the only friend he has ever known. In a parallel storyline, Hunter, a 19-year-old Snake warrior along with his wolf, join his newly-discovered brother in search of their long-thought dead mother, unknowing she is the woman Lince rescued. As their paths converge across the hostile wilderness, they are drawn into a battle with a band of murderous renegades. It takes their tenacity and characters such a Kills-in-the-Dark, Spirit Man, and Lion Hunter to give them a chance to survive.
