Betrayed--trapped in a death-ravaged alien land--beautiful, innocent sisters Cora and Alice Munro, singer David Gamut, and Major Duncan Heyward are running blind through a murderous nightmare where capture, torture, and bloody enemies lurk in every tree, every shadow--
Their only chance lies with three strangers who emerge from the wildlands: Hawkeye, the lethal manhunter who has turned his back on the world; Great Serpent, self-exiled lord of a doomed nation; and Bounding Elk, a young warrior of nearly superhuman grace, speed and strength. And the destinies of refugees and heroes will explode beside a holy lake, when the savage armies of terror must face and fight a living legend--
For one of these seven is the lost godking of the Mohicans....

Review:
"[Cooper's] sympathy is large, and his humor is as genuine -- and as perfectly unaffected -- as his art."
- Joseph Conrad
From the Back Cover:
- Joseph Conrad
At the centre of the novel is the celebrated 'Massacre' of British troops and their families by Indian allies of the French at Fort William Henry in 1757. Around this historical event, Cooper built a romantic fiction of captivity, sexuality, and heroism, in which the destiny of the Mohican Chingachgook and his son Uncas is inseparable from the lives of Alice and Cora Munro and of Hawkeye the frontier scout.
