for Cassie Edwards' fans

Indians killed all the other family members of Annamae Jacobson; she is fortunate to have survived the attack though the youngster is confused by the tragedy. Traveling carnival show owners Howard and Ellie Baker "adopt" her to use her to perform duties. However, as she has gotten older Annamae begins to understand her role is that of a con artist; she detests her phony interpretations that give people false hope. When Howard captures Gray Stone and plans to use the lad as a sideshow freak, Annamae decides she has had enough. She helps the Indian escape and he takes her to his uncle Chief Cougar of the Blackfoot tribe. He initially holds the white woman, whom he is attracted to, culpable, but his nephew clears the air. As the Chief and the outsider fall in love, her real skills to tell the future through visions make her a tribal asset. A Cassie Edwards' Savage tale is always well written and fun to read though each historical comes out of the Big Mac mold of knowing that wherever you are you know what you got before that first bite. Annamae is a solid protagonist who has doubts about what she is doing that is not enough to run away as she has no place to go; however when Howard plans to use and abuse Gray Stone, that motivates her into becoming a heroine. Ms. Edward's fans will appreciate the historical romance between the Indian chief and the White shaman. Harriet Klausner
