Making peace with the past . . . Discovering
the only love that heals . . . Ishi, the last of his tribe, utterly
alone in the white man’s world . . . Allison, abandoned as a child,
haunted by dreams of a mother whose face she cannot recall . . . In
1911, the last Yahi Indian walked out of the woods and into
civilization for the first time. Driven from a life of hiding, Ishi
longs for one thing – to tell a secret tale, a fable of his people
that only he knows. Allison Morgan understands how important it is
to obey the tenets of propriety, especially when her anthropologist
husband is entrusted with the care of the last Stone Age Indian in
North America. Yet, something about Ishi stirs echoes of memories
long forgotten, compelling her to defy the rules. Secretly, she
learns Ishi’s language. And then, the tale begins, bringing with it
the promise of hope long abandoned. But in the midst of renewed
dreams, will a tangle of hidden motives, personal insecurities, and
long-masked secrets destroy their one chance to discover the truth?
*** Based on actual historical events, Only the Wind Remembers
invites you to a time when everything was not as it seemed, when a
simple tale held the key to hope, when only the wind remembered what
it meant to be free . . . |
