Book excerpt: An injured Apache girl adopted by a powerful rancher, the rancher's son kidnapped by the last free Apaches-in the 1920s Sierra Madre.In Deathsong, volume two of the Beloved Captive Trilogy, we follow the unforgettable characters introduced in Far Blue Mountains. Ride with Jubal McKenna, searching the sierras for Apache camps and his captive son. With each cold trail his mission turns from rescue to revenge. Meanwhile John Russell McKenna-now called Denali, his Apache name-undergoes the warrior's rite of passage. Every step of the way we are with Denali, descending into a hidden bee cave to gather wild honey, in the dark woods of his vision quest, and when he discovers a shocking secret about the band's immortal shaman. The secret threatens Denali's new life. We are perched like a carrion angel on Cain's shoulder while he relives the past. A dream within a dream-Cain's theft of a mysterious ring from a dead man's hand, his time as a cavalry officer, lost years wandering continents as a soldier of fortune. Dolores, Jubal's adopted Apache daughter, feels her heart torn as the momentum of two worlds builds to unstoppable collision. Inspired by historical events, Deathsong is a triumph from Max McNabb, editor of TexasHillCountry.com. One to the heart, one to the head-McNabb's prose is a knock-out combo of grand adventure and bone-deep longing.
