Summary:
Action, romance, and adventure set the tone for this uplifting story about a Shoshoni maiden, Red Willow, who sets out on a quest into the rugged Rocky Mountains on her spiritual journey to become a medicine woman. She must face tribal opposition, wild animals, enemy warriors, and dangerous white trappers. Wind Chaser, a wolf-dog, is her only companion until Masheka, a Kootenai warrior, is guided to protect her.

Author Tip: Reveal Characters
Reveal characters gradually. This is the way we get to know people in real life. Most of what the reader learns about a character should be revealed by their behavior, thoughts and feelings. The reader then becomes activity involved with the story as they try to figure who the character is and how he or she will respond to the challenges they are faced with.

"In Red Willow's Quest Heidi Skarie displays a talent for mystical and spiritual writing. She explains the meaning and symbolism for each tradition mentioned, then adds action, adventure, and romance, bringing them all together into one powerful epic. Ultimately, Red Willow must make a challenging decision that will considerably change her life and conclude this intense novel. I enjoyed Red Willow' Quest from beginning to end."
Bloomsbury Review of Books
"The story is well written and rings true. Ms. Skarie has a wonderful voice for the character and obviously has extensive knowledge about the life and customs of the Shoshoni tribe."
