Summary
Having risen to power as chief of his people, the Storn, sixteen-year-old Sig leads them as they try to resist the bloodthirsty invaders known as the Dark Horse and makes a shocking discovery about his foster sister Mouse.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: SIG IS A boy in a coastal tribe, the Storn, long ago in a Northern land. On the day of the wolf hunt, the life of the tribe changes forever, for Sig rescues a small girl, more like the wolves who shelter her than a human. Sigâs family adopts her and names her Mouse, and he becomes a loyal brother to this girl with mysterious powers and a secret past. The shocking discovery of Mouseâs true identity brings to life a terrifying legend and leads to war, betrayal, and Sigâs coming of age as he finds the wit and courage to save his tribe.
