"In 1825, Richard Hamilton, a Harvard philosophy student, arrives in St. Louis on business. After being robbed and beaten, he joins the crew of the Maria, a fur trader's keelboat heading to the Upper Yellowstone River. On his journey, Richard begins the adventure of a lifetime. Meanwhile, Packrat, a Pawnee warrior, captures Heals Like a Willow, a young Shoshone medicine woman. However, slaves with spiritual connections can-and do-fight back.
