In this sequel to The White Seneca, Henry Cochrane, now eighteen, is entrusted with a message from the settlers of the Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, to the Continental Army. They are suffering under the constant Indian raids instigated by the British and plead for protection. Because of Henry's knowledge of Indian ways, General George Washington requests his services as a scout for General Sullivan in the campaign to forever break the power of the Iroquois Confederacy. In the fall of 1779, the combined armies of Generals Sullivan and Clinton sweep across New York State, destroying Indian villages and crops. Henry, alone and in constant peril, travels ahead of the Army seeking to warn his Indian friends of the coming destruction while also desperately searching for the beautiful Constance Leonard whom he had been forced to leave in captivity a year earlier.
