"It's the year 2052. Stevie Henry is a Cherokee girl working at a museum in Texas, trying to save up enough money to go to college. The world around her is in a cycle of drought and superstorms, ice and fire ... but people get by. But it's about to get a whole lot worse. When a mysterious boy shows up at Stevie's museum saying that he's from the future--and telling her what is to come--she refuses to believe him. But soon she will have no choice"--Provided by publisher.

Haunting illustrations are woven throughout these horror stories that follow one extended Cherokee family across the centuries and well into the future as they encounter predators of all kinds in each time period.
