  Adaline's father has left her with his relatives while he guides an expedition over the Rocky Mountains. Unfortunately, he neglected to tell them that his daughter is half Arapaho Indian - to them nothing but a savage, fit only to work as a slave. When her father doesn't come back to claim her, Adaline can stand their cruelty no longer, and she sets off up the Mississippi to find him herself. A gripping story for 9-12 year olds.
