Within the powerful whirlwinds of Indian legends, prejudices, civil war, and murder lives Harriet, a beautiful, young Mashantucket Pequot Indian. While working as a house servant at a local dairy farm, she is brutalized by her employer, Seamus Colin Greene. But soon after, she meets a tall, magnificent Narragansett Indian, Augustus, a farm laborer.

Harriet thinks he's a braggart, but she eventually falls in love with him. Harriet buries her growing, burning passions toward him, and in the dark of night, tantalizing and forbidden images flash before her eyes.

Untimely deaths, the desertion of Augustus to the Union Army, and the arrest of Mr. Greene eventually lead Harriet to accept a marriage proposal from a red-headed Irishman, Ammon. Nonetheless, Harriet is confused about her feelings.

Should she follow her heart? Or her better judgment?
