Miyax, like many adolescents, is torn. But unlike most, her choices may
determine whether she lives or dies. At 13, an orphan, and unhappily

to safety. Now, more than ever, she must look hard at who she really is.
Is she Miyax, Eskimo girl of the old ways? Or is she Julie (her
"gussak"-white people-name), the modernized teenager who must mock the
traditional customs? And when a pack of wolves begins to accept her into
their community, Miyax must learn to think like a wolf as well. If she
trusts her Eskimo instincts, will she stand a chance of surviving?... more
