Description

The Taken is a gripping tale of two brothers torn apart by happenstance and tormented by hatred, guilt and memory.

The Taken is based on true abductiona of children by Comanche in 1864 Texas

The Taken is a gripping tale of two brothers torn apart by happenstance and tormented by hatred, guilt and memory. Rarely does a novel about Indian captivity take the reader so convincingly into the psyches of both the one stolen and the would-be rescuer. This is an unforgettable story, and Mike Kearby tells it vividly and without flinching.”
