It's 1865, and Angelique and her family are hunting buffalo across the prairies, along with other Metis families. When horse thieves raid their camp one night, more than the horses are in danger: the buffalo hunt-and the Metis' very survival—are at stake. Angelique, along with her brother, Joseph, and friend François, is determined to bring their beloved horses home, even if she has to take on the raiders herself! Welcome back to OUR CANADIAN GIRL, and the continuing adventures of Angelique and many other smart, spirited, and courageous girls. They come from different places and times in Canadian history, and each of them meets some ordinary—and extraordinary—challenges in her day-to-day life.

In the final instalment of Angelique's story, Angelique and Joseph have a new baby sister, but Mama and baby must stay with the midwife until the raging blizzards subside. As Papa travels to and from the midwife's house, Angelique must take on more responsibilities at home, which would be much easier were it not for the freezing temperatures. Winter, which has come with a vengeance to the little settlement of Batoche, means snow and fun, but it can also mean danger.

Victoria Callihoo was born before Canada was a nation, and was a grandmother by the time Alberta became a province. She traveled with her family on the buffalo hunt on a Red River cart when the herds were so numerous they resembled a moving brown sea. She embraced her Metis heritage and shared her stories with her children and her friends. Through her stories, she inspires us with the perspective of a strong woman in the early days of our country. She gives us a window onto the world of the Metis and provides us with an image of what it was like to be a woman during the time of the buffalo hunt.

Kour'el wakes up in a tower cell with no memory of who she is or where she came from. One painful shred at a time, she pieces together her memory with the help of her companion Api'Naga, an immortal dragon. They know they have come from very far away, and that they have a mission. But what is it? Who are they looking for? Not even Api'Naga knows for certain. 
 Two in this land have the answers the strangers are seeking. One of them is a captive, secretly revered but more helpless than Kour'el herself. And the other, Petaurus, caring for his granddaughter in a tiny mountain village, is afraid. Queen Mariah's ruthless grasp extends to the very edges of the kingdom now. To whom can he entrust his dangerous secret?

In this sequel to On Wings of a Dragon, a chill wind is blowing through the skies of the flying ones, and once again the dragon Api'Naga and his companion Kour'el are on a mission: to find the source of the evil that is disturbing their land. Their search will take them back to the island home of Maighdlin - once a simple village girl, now a queen - and to places where they experienced their greatest suffering. 
 And they are not the only ones with unfinished business. Princess Paloma, one of the dead queen Mariah's banished daughters, has been seen in the Dargon Courtyard, and when Maighdlin and her loyal guardsmen, Brede and Talon, follow her trail, it takes them through the tunnel to the Tower, that brooding edifice that has held so many secret prisoners. There, they are launched into fresh horrors. Queen Mariah - or something like her - has returned; and behind her hovers a force greater and more evil than any of them - dragon or human - has ever seen.
