From the Publisher
Walking Through Shadows is one of the most unforgettable books I've ever read. And the character of Sheila Carruth Barnes is destined to become a classic of American literature. Marshall evokes the rich emotional fabric of the South in a way reminiscent of To Kill a Mockingbird. This novel sings in your soul long after the last page. It is not one to be missed.

From Publisher
Eleven-year-old Sallie March is a whip-smart tomboy and voracious reader of Western adventure novels. When she and her sister, Maude, are orphaned for the second time, they decide to escape their new self-serving guardians for the wilds of the frontier and an adventure the likes of which Sallie has only read about. This time, however, the wanted woman isn't a villain out of a dime novel--it's Sallie's very own sister!
Narrated by the irrepressible Sallie, what follows is the rollicking story of what really happened out there on the range. Not the lies the papers printed, but the honest-to-goodness truth of how things went from bad to worse and how two very different sisters went from being orphans to being outlaws--and lived to tell the tale! Bursting with memorable characters, fast-paced action, and laugh-out-loud moments, this is Newbery Honor winner Audrey Couloumbis's most unforgettable work yet.
