In 1690, on the shores of Canada's Hudson Bay, a young Henry Kelsey longs to make his mark with The Company of Adventurers. When the chief factor asks him to travel inland to explore an endless wilderness filled with grizzly bears and wolves, and to establish trading connections with Canada's First Peoples, he is eager to begin. Hundreds of miles southwest, a few days east of where the woodland melts into prairie, Kelsy meets Meyokwaiwin, a young Cree woman who has every reason to believe she will live out her life the same as her ancestors, with nothing changing but the round of seasons. But things are about to change. For both of them.
