When Julia Elaine Newton, a young, pretty Ohio girl, volunteered to go on a mission to the Belgian Congo, she knew it was going to be a huge change. But she never expected to wind up teaching at an all girls boarding school that consisted mostly of runaway child brides!
Much to her chagrin, Early Dusk was born beautiful. If only she'd been ugly, Big Chief Eagle would not have noticed her. Escaping an arranged marriage, the scrappy 8 year old girl finds her way to Julia Newton and the school. But this time her jilted husband will not be denied.
It's up to Julia and Early Dusk to try and save the school as Congolese Independence looms and Big Chief Eagle is set on revenge. With the help of Cripple, her husband, and even Amanda Brown, these plucky women must learn to save themselves.
Based on actual events in Tamar Myers's life, THE GIRL WHO MARRIED AN EAGLE is a beautiful cap to the Belgian Congo mystery series.
