CHapter 7
In Chapter Seven, as Rose leaves Minerva’s room, she catches Frenchie eavesdropping and smiles at him. That night she enters his room, crawls into his bed, and huddles close to him to tell her story. Rose’s mother was a Native woman from the White River Reserve. Her father was half black and half Indian, from the Caribbean islands. When she was young, the government took both of her parents away for their experiments, and Rose went to live with her granny. Later, she joined her great-uncles, William and Jonas, on a trek to the wilderness. After six years of walking, Will died. She and Jonas kept walking. They didn’t talk much, but he taught her to defend herself, to trust no one, and how to hunt. Eventually, Jonas also died, and that is when Rose buried him and joined Miigwan’s group.
