Opis

At what point did humanity learn to fear each other? To hate? Paleo-Anthropologist Ariel Connor thinks she knows. She just can't prove it yet, but her newest find, high in a Norwegian Valley may give her the proof she needs. Those scary stories we've told our children to keep them from roaming too far outside the gleam of the porch light may have come from real incidents, many, many years ago. While Dr. Connor's excavation continues, the story of what happened is slowly revealed. Two clans are converging on the remaining game lands. One will have to leave their homes, one will tell stories and sing songs of their own bravery. A simple hunter and his young daughter stand in the way. They undertake a desperate journey to heal the enmity and fear, to share their knowledge, to bring lasting peace. One people will disappear while the other will bring their own history into the modern world. One way of life will be lost, but does the better way endure? What have we learned from the ancients that would have been better forgotten?
