The year is 1904, the Philippines is under American rule, and Luki’s mountain village is changing—in every way, except in what a young woman can do. The ancients forbid Luki from hunting, even though she is a better hunter than any man. And soon, they will make her marry. Whether she wants to or not.
Then comes an invitation from President Theodore Roosevelt: to visit the World’s Fair in St. Louis, Missouri. The ancients say no, but Luki leaps at the chance. She wants to see the great white palaces and wonders of the Fair . . . and she wants to be free.
But Luki will discover that the land of opportunity us not at all what she expects . . .
