About Product:
As a young Mormon boy in Missouri, Samuel Harold sees his parents murdered by vicious mobsters and barely escapes with his own life. Left to fend for himself in the dead of winter without food or shelter, he wonders, "What does a ten-year-old boy know about making his own way in the world?" The answer to that question leads him to the adventure of a lifetime!
In the snowy wilderness Samuel encounters Shunktokecha, an Indian brave who takes the boy back to his Pawnee village and becomes his teacher. Because of his skill at throwing knives, Samuel becomes known as "Knife Thrower," and for six years he is immersed in the Pawnee culture. He remembers enough of his Mormon upbringing to tell the villagers stories from the Book of Mormon, and Shuntokecha reveals that he has been taught some important lessons by one of the Three Nephites.
On a trading expedition to Missouri, Knife Thrower encounters the hated mobster who killed his parents. Will he seek revenge against this cold-blooded murderer, or is he bound by a higher law?
