A friendship between a young Native American and a colonial New England settler endangers them both in this “simply unforgettable” (Booklist, starred review) adventure story from Newbery Medalist Susan Cooper. On the winter day Little Hawk is sent into the woods alone, he can take only a bow and arrows, his handcrafted tomahawk, and the amazing metal knife his father traded for with the new white settlers. If Little Hawk survives three moons by himself, he will be a man. John Wakely is only ten when his father dies, but he has already experienced the warmth and friendship of the nearby tribes. Yet his fellow colonists aren’t as accepting of the native people. When he is apprenticed to a barrel-maker, John sees how quickly the relationships between settlers and natives are deteriorating. His friendship with Little Hawk will put both boys in grave danger. The intertwining stories of Little Hawk and John Wakely are a fascinating tale of friendship and an eye-opening look at the history of our nation. Newbery Medalist Susan Cooper also includes a timeline and an author’s note that discusses the historical context of this important and moving novel.

Ghost Hawk was the pride of his village, their most fearsome Warrior. Although not much for speaking himself, he had a gift for languages - a gift which he considered both a curse and a blessing. He cared deeply for the Native traditions, including keeping the bloodline pure. He never backed down from any battle including the ones with the intruding white men. He witnessed attack after attack on the Native villages and the merciless killing of the ones he loved. And yet, a beautiful white woman, alone and passed out in the woods, called on his sense of integrity. Knowing she was in danger of certain death from the elements or possibly being eaten by a wild predator, he found himself conflicted. What was it about Grace that could cause the cold-hearted killer to rethink his hatred and consider being her savior? Grace was the victim of the hard times settlers faced when trying to make a life in the untamed West. Her mother dying in childbirth left her without a female role model and cemented her fear of love and being intimate. She and her father made the decision to move westward in an ill-conceived attempt to repair their relationship. Stranded in a camp full of dirty, discourteous men, she felt fated to live the life of an unloved wife and mother. Running from an apparent attack on the mining camp, she finds herself injured and alone. The only help offered to her is a man she knows she should fear; Ghost Hawk - a fierce-looking Apache warrior. He awakens within her feelings she didn't know existed. Does he feel the same about her? Is the hope of happiness more important than keeping the bloodline pure, and will it be enough to quell her fear of intimacy?

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Jane Hawk’s one-woman war comes to an explosive climax as the rogue FBI agent gambles everything against a terrifying conspiracy, for vengeance, for justice, and for humanity’s freedom—from the author of The Silent Corner. “Jane Hawk is arguably the best character Koontz has created. . . . Simply put, wow.”—Associated Press A visionary young filmmaker hunted for sport across a vast Colorado ranch by the celebrated billionaire at the heart of a monstrous cabal . . . A brilliant computer hacker slipping through top-secret databases a whisper ahead of security trackers, gathering the facts to fight the all-powerful perpetrators of mass murder . . . A pair of brutal operators, methodically shadowing their targets with every cutting-edge tool in the arsenal of today’s surveillance state . . . A sequence of quiet heroes—everyday citizens—stepping up, stepping forward, intent on countering the advancing darkness . . . A Vegas mob boss teamed with a homicidal sociopath, circling a beloved boy and his protectors, aiming to secure him as leverage against his fugitive mother . . . And that fugitive mother herself, ex-agent Jane Hawk, closing in on the malevolent architects of ruin she has stalked as they stalk her, prepared to sacrifice herself to finally bring them down. These are the people and circumstances of The Night Window, the thrilling new novel in Dean Koontz’s acclaimed Jane Hawk series. Replete—and then some—with the ingenious twists, the spellbinding action, the resonant themes, the sheer heart that have characterized Jane’s journey from the start, The Night Window follows its extraordinary heroine to her long-sought objective, in a stunning, unforgettable finale. Don’t miss any of Dean Koontz’s gripping Jane Hawk thrillers: THE SILENT CORNER • THE WHISPERING ROOM • THE CROOKED STAIRCASE • THE FORBIDDEN DOOR • THE NIGHT WINDOW “The spectacular finale to Jane’s story . . . will hit series fans with all the impact of a carefully calibrated hammer blow.”—Booklist (starred review) “The best installment in the series since the first . . . [Koontz] revs it up with entertaining encounters and offbeat humor.”—Kirkus Reviews
