A mysterious tale of a young woman named Hetty whose past comes back to haunt her, threatening not only her, but those she loves.
Helen Maria Hunt Jackson byla americká spisovatelka, jejíž dílo se soustředilo na zobrazení nespravedlivého zacházení s původními obyvateli Ameriky, zejména v jižní Kalifornii. Skrze své psaní se stala horlivou obhájkyní jejich práv a její próza sloužila jako silný nástroj sociální kritiky. Jackson se ve své literární tvorbě zaměřovala na odhalování historických křivd a na volání po spravedlnosti, čímž si vysloužila uznání jako hlas pro utlačované.
