Set in the area around Quanah, Texas, Call\u2019s excellent latest is an informed, moving portrait of one young man\u2019s remarkable resilience and pride. On his eighteenth birthday, Jonathan is given responsibility to fulfill more than 150-years old vision that one of his ancestors saw. But his path is filled with unseen dangers and countless hurdles. Sprinkled with spiritual musings and illuminated by fascinating lore of the Comanche tribes, Call\u2019s stream-of-consciousness narrative is layered with authenticity. The complex plot slowly reveals a conspiracy involving older generations. Chapters devoted to Jonathan\u2019s search for answers alternate with scorching flashbacks to his family history. Throughout, Call skillfully infuses the local history of Quanah, the Medicine Mounds, and Comanche Chief Peta Nocona and his son Quanah Parker\u2019s story into Jonathan\u2019s ongoing quest. The poignant insights into honor, integrity, perseverance, life-purpose, and celebration of family will resonate with many. The lovers of sophisticated philosophical historical fiction will be delighted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
