Synopsis
Half-Apache and half-Tejana, fifteen-year-old K shkeya, whose Spanish name is Manuela Ballardo, disguises herself as a boy in order to scout for a party of Texian prospectors led by James Bowie and his brother Rezin. In the now-famous Indian fight at San Sab , she so distinguishes herself that she is asked to scout for the Texas Army during the Texas Revolution and later, during the Comanche War, for the Texas Rangers.
