Hatter Fox

Plot

"At seventeen, she is a rebel, a prostitute, a drug addict, a thief-- a Navajo who hates and is hated by the white world of New Mexico. Teague Summer, a young Indian Bureau doctor, is stabbed by Hatter the first time he sees her in a local jail. Yet he is drawn to this wild, fascinating girl and is told that unless he tries to help her, she will be sent to a cruel mental hospital. The story of Hatter Fox and Teague Summer is poignant, triumphant, and terribly sad--as they both are changed forever."--Page 4 of cover
