'What kind of a girl steals the clothes from a dead man s back and runs off to join the army? A desperate one. That s who." At the end of the American Civil War, Charley - a young African-American slave from the deep south - is ostensibly freed. But then her adopted mother is raped and lynched at the hands of a mob and Charley is left alone. In a terrifyingly lawless land, where the colour of a person s skin can bring violent death, Charley disguises herself as a man and joins the army. Soon she s being sent to the prairies to fight a whole new war against the"savage Indians". Trapped in a world of injustice and inequality, it s only when Charley is posted to Apache territory that she begins to learn what it is to be truly free.
