First published 1984
The source material provides only bibliographic details about this 1984 first edition rather than story content.

The book appears in softcover format from its initial June 1984 printing. Without access to plot details, character names, or narrative elements from the source, the central story remains unclear. Highwater typically weaves stories that examine the intersection of traditional and contemporary worlds. His protagonists often navigate between different cultural spheres, facing questions about belonging and heritage. The title suggests themes around ancestry, legacy, and the stories that flow through generations like blood through veins.
