Opis

A writer inherits an old home in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in Plumas County but finds it it's still occupied. The occupant, the restless spirit of a United States Army Captain who was ordered to lead a detachment of Cherokee on a forced removal to Oklahoma in 1838. Named Munroe-Who-Can-Not-Die by an old medicine woman, court martialed for a traitor and deserter and hanged as a result of prejudicial justice, he's waited 158 years to clear his name by telling his story; the story of an immoral and illegal campaign to exterminate the native people of North America.
