" Silver Wolf " Who am I? What am I? I live in trailer court even the Anglos
avoid if possible, my native language lodged with my stubborn old grandmother who won't bend to the White Eyes ways so my
mother has to 'keep her safe' in a closed residential place because she won't share our lives. "Not Indian."
But in my dreams my spirit ranges far and wide, shadowed by a silver wolf who will neither abandon nor approach me as I sense
there has to be something more ahead than the Army, a high school diploma, or my mother's beloved soap operas. But
how am I to ever know? Unless...Unless...I dare to slip into the wilderness reserves far beyond the control of the brown shirt
Rangers for a Spirit Quest? Is that dumb...or what? ...In my dreams the Wolf comes to me and says "If you do not
seek me, I will seek you out until one of us is no more! " Why? Who am I? What am I? I live in trailer court
even the Anglos avoid if possible, my native language lodged with my stubborn old grandmother who won't bend to the White
Eyes ways...unless...  " Seuss and Baylie "
As a child of a couple where both parents are active memebers of the military, twelve-year-old
Seuss grew up expecting that change was to be an intergal part of her life, but that didn't make it any easier when her younger
sister was born unexpectedly, when her father's mother had to move in with them while her Mom was deployed in Iraq as a low-risk
level Interpretper... or when her mother's supposed 'kidnapping' while visiting with relatives in their ancient homeland turns
out to her her Mom's decision to convert to Islam, marry the man who supposedly 'kidnapped' her and required both her daughters
to join her in Iraq, without their father...and without even asking her how she might feel about this change!

This Montana family of modern day ranchers truely love one another ~ they just don't know how to show it! Will the arrival of 'Little Green Men' from Outer Space help them to find it?
" Cache " A Rancher's teen aged daughter, whose only freedom is in her high school soccer league, faces an uncertain future as her divorced father breaks up with his long time girl friend just as Nicole is looking for a woman role model to share her life. A woman whose twenty year old son recently committed suicide brings his horse 'Cache' to the Randall's ranch to finish training. Her hope is to find some measure of solace from the grief and unanswerable questions raised by his shocking death while completing the dream that eluded him in life. Although the only sparks that fly between the adults is dislike, Anne Richards is someone Nicole can share with-though the prospects of finding a husband other than a man her father will hire - are growing dimmer as the Montana summer sun grows brighter!
