A voyageur and a young woman swept up in a time of upheaval
and danger
discover firsthand the high price of freedom.
The British Army has taken control of Michilimackinac Island
and its fort, forcing the Americans to swear an oath of
loyalty to the crown in order to retain their land. Pierre
Durant is a fur trader who returns after being away from the
island for years, only to find the family farm a shambles
and those he cares about starving and at the mercy of
British invaders.
Torn between the adventurous life of fur trading and guilt
over neglecting his defenseless mother, Pierre is drawn
deeper into the fight against the British--and into a
relationship with Angelique MacKenzie, a childhood friend
who's grown into a beautiful woman. She now finds herself
trapped by the circumstances of war and poverty, and the
cruelty of her guardian, Ebenezer Whiley.
As tensions mount and the violence rages on, Pierre and
Angelique must decide where their loyalties rest and how
much they'll risk for love.
