Matty Wheet’s grandmother, Abigail, knows secrets about the family’s ancestry, but no one else believes her. In 1978, when Matty learns she is descended from leaders of the Native Wampanoag nation who fought against Plymouth Colony in King Philip’s War (1675), she fears her life has been ruined. Tim Romney, her life-long friend, searches ancient history and finds reasons she and he can be proud of their ancestors.
