Summary

"Estrild is not like other girls in her village; she wants to be a warrior. Varick, the orphan boy who helps her train in spite of his twisted back, also stands apart. In a world where differences are poorly tolerated, just how much danger are they in? Inspired by the true discovery of the two-thousand-year-old Windeby bog body in northern Germany, master storyteller Lois Lowry breathes life back into the Windeby Child, left in the bog to drown with a woolen blindfold over its eyes. This riveting exploration of lives that might have been by a gifted, intellectually curious author is utterly one of a kind." --Book jacket
