Everyone from her village was taken East to another place by white men, but Karana and her brother were left behind on the island. Karana and her brother are to wait for another ship to come and take them to where the others are. Soon after the others leave, Karana’s brother is killed by a pack of wild dogs.
Karana has to survive on her own, while she waits for the other ship to pick her up. The only real threat on the island is the pack of wild dogs, which killed her brother. She plans to take care of that problem by killing them one by one.

This is a good book we had to read it in 7th grade and I enjoyed it.
