Summary
During World War II, Newfoundlander Kyle Holloway deserts from the Royal Navy and hides in a cave below a church, starving, disoriented and tormented by his own act of betrayal. Over a century earlier, Shanawdithit, a Beothuk, became the last… of her tribe, and is forced to endlessly repeat the story of her doomed people. And in 1998, Judith and Ian Muir are in Rwanda as part of a United Nations team when Ian is killed. Judith returns to England and the abandoned cottage where she grew up, where an unusual discovery takes her on a quest that will connect her to Shanawdithit and Kyle Holloway. Some descriptions of sex, violence, and some strong language. 2007.
