Who will be worthy of the stone? In the final chapter of Bluebird and Grey Wolf's Cherokee descendants, the story of Amelia Clay Stone, their great granddaughter, will continue to evolve. Not only the sad legacy of the Trail of Tears, but Amelia's abusive experiences at the Cherokee Girls' Mission will take their psychological toll on her children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren. Meanwhile, young Bonita McKindle, the love interest of Amelia's sons, Clay and Ross, struggles to overcome the damage brought upon her by tragedy, poverty, and neglect. Forced to quit school to care for her critically ill, alcoholic father, Bonita desperately yearns to escape and make a better life for herself, only to encounter more heartache. When she gives birth to her daughter Miranda, Bonita experiences new hope, but Miranda and her children will soon find their own demons to battle. All the while, the fate of a special family heirloom-the stone Bluebird carried on the Trail of Tears from Georgia so long ago-rests in Amelia's hands. It has been passed down through the generations to Bluebird's descendants. Will the aging Amelia find any family member who is worthy to carry it on to the next generation? Or will the traditional Cherokee beliefs the stone represents be lost forever?

Autorenporträt
When my Cherokee ancestors arrived in Indian Territory, it was not a choice. Their names are included on a muster list of the Trail of Tears, and their strength has inspired me to write the stories that they might have told.My own story began in the small town of Stilwell, Oklahoma, where I have lived most of my life. By twenty-four, I was married with two children, teaching language arts at Stilwell Junior High School. I diversified my career, eventually retiring as the librarian of Siloam Springs Middle School in Siloam Springs, Arkansas, in 2010.Even though I returned to work temporarily as a part-time library clerk at Stilwell Public Library, I found time to pursue my passion-writing. For the next seven years, I was published in Guidepost Magazine, the Oklahoma Genealogical Society Quarterly, the Green Country Anthology, the Starwatch Anthology 37, Saddlebag Dispatches, and in various newspapers and newsletters.
