In 1828, Shawn ?Skip? Sullivan is somewhere around fourteen
years old when the Indians attack his family's homestead and kill
both his mother and father. Warned by the barking dogs, Skip's
mother forced him to hide in the cabin's false floor. Though Skip
is unharmed, his journey is just beginning.
After burying his parents, Skip knows he can't stay at the cabin
alone forever. He remembers that there's a small settlement with a
trading post about thirty miles away, but he hasn't been there
since he was seven years old. With just a small backpack filled
with the items the Indians didn't scavenge, Skips sets off for the
nearest civilization.
He soon finds himself alone and lost in the mountains?until he
meets an old trapper called Big Jim, who teaches him how to
survive. Together, the two navigate the wilderness while fending
off attackers both human and beast. Skip comes of an age while
learning tough lessons about the world and the nature around
him.
