Stone introduces Edwin, a young man who must discover his family’s past if he is to have any future. Edwin learns of his ancestor Stone, a young Plains Cree man, who came of age in the early 19th century. Following a vision quest, Stone aspires to be like his older brother, Bear, a member of the Warrior Society. But when Bear is tragically killed during a Blackfoot raid, Stone, the best shot and rider in his encampment, must overcome his grief and avenge his brother’s death. Only then can he begin a new life with his bride, Nahoway.

The 7 Generations series follows one Plains Cree family from the early 19th century to the present day. The four books in the series—Stone, Scars, Ends/Begins, and The Pact—explore the life of a young Cree warrior, the smallpox epidemic of 1870, and the residential school system of the 20th century as well as its intergenerational legacy. For Edwin, the story of his ancestors from both the distant and recent past must guide him through an uncertain present to the dawn of a new future.
