This is a story of boy turned leader of his tribe whose family adopted an orphan girl with the ability to speak with animals. After years of living with the adoptive family a band of murderous horseman comes to their village and the killing begins.

Set in an ancient community in the far north, this book is more about the relationship and mystery revolving around a foundling and her foster brother. When crops go bad and the village is threatened by raiders, it is Mouse whose dark secret decides the fate of everyone.

Lame and depressing / Deepish and sentimental in a good way. I like my booktalks with clearer good/bad and happier endings - though I guess some literary teens would enjoy this.
