The tumultuous settlement of the New World and the crossing of its two cultures form the backdrop for this sweeping saga of a courageous pioneer woman.
Mary Ingles (Sheryl Lee, TV's One Tree Hill) is pregnant when she and her young son are captured from their homestead in Virginia's Blue Ridge Mountains by Shawnee Indians. After giving birth, Mary finds herself falling for Wildcat, the Shawnee chief, but is determined to return home to her husband. Separated from her children after being sold, Mary convinces a fellow captive (Ellen Burstyn, The Fountain) to escape with her; and with unwavering resolve, she leads them on the journey of a lifetime—a journey home.
