At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the idyllic yet perilous life on a missionary station. Mary, her mother, and a young girl named Maud provide educational support to local girls, including Lisele, the chief’s daughter, who is wrestling with her beliefs. Tensions rise as rival natives threaten violence against the mission, leading to a suspenseful escape sequence that highlights fear, faith, and the strength of community.
