Library Journal
The third book in a new series of Evans novels of the West. Three single-minded characters are bound together by circumstances resulting from the withdrawal of the U.S. Army from Sioux territory in Montana in 1868. Trader Wiley Smart (Slippery Tongue) aims to enrich himself; Hannah Holt heads for wealth in Saratoga Springs, New York; and 12-year-old Linc seeks vengeance on Red Cloud for his parents' murder. Their journey is halted by the Crow, who hold them in their village, where Hannah and Linc learn valuable lessons. Hannah is a bit too incredible to accept, but Linc is brave and resourceful. Not one of Wheeler's best, but entertaining. Sister Avila, Acad. of the Holy Angels, Minneapolis
