Hunted for Plague antibodies in their blood, Native American twins Cass and Paul flee to a preserve, where Cass apprentices as a medicine woman and Paul joins the paramilitary Band. When the Band goes to war, Cass can't save Paul from a predatory spirit. Native American mythology combines with dystopian fantasy for a gripping read, but the plot seems unfortunately incomplete, dependent on a sequel.
