Description for PICTURE MAKER by Penina Keen Spinka:

But when her prophecy of war leads to her own capture by her tribe's enemy, she must embark on an epic journey that will bring her full circle to a destiny she cannot escape.

Courageous and resilient, Picture Maker flees her Algonquin kidnappers to the remote corners of the Western Hemisphere. It is here that she meets Halvard, a Norse hunter to whom she is irresistibly drawn--and who holds the key to the riddle of her birth. Together, they sail to Greenland, where Halvard's way of life comes under attack and Picture Maker is shunned as an outcast. And it is here, in this harsh and beautiful land, that she faces her most terrifying battle yet--to save her new family from a fate as tumultuous as her own...
