By Paul Fleischman, Joel Spector (Illustrator)
A young apprentice risks everything to uncover his past and find his lost brother.
In 1681 Boston, William, a Narraganset Indian living as a printer's apprentice, leads a double life. By day, he works diligently; by night, he becomes Weetasket, searching for his lost brother. As the Saturnalia festival approaches, where roles are reversed, William fears his secret will be exposed. Will he find his brother, or will the truth about his past and others' dark deeds come to light? The stakes are high as William navigates a world where his identity hangs in the balance.
In 1681 in Boston, fourteen-year-old William, a Narraganset Indian captured in a raid six years earlier, leads a productive and contented life as a printer’s apprentice but is increasingly anxious to make some connection with his Indian past.
