| Plot Summary of Skye Dancer |
"Haunted by her dreams, blurry visions of a terrified face peering up out of a black void, Skye Dancer embarks on a danger-filled mission to rescue the girl held hostage in the pit up on Wolf's Head Mountain before the flood waters rise and she is lost forever. Along the way, Skye encounters the deranged murderous mountain man, the legendary "Prospector" and the deep secret he carries."
Lila L. Pinord, Resident Scholar
