Bone Beads

By Lydia MacClaren

Leiv has a deadline to meet. Sent to record the first census at the nomadic tribe's annual gathering, he wants everything to go perfectly. But when a snowstorm delays his return to the capital, Leiv must face how foreign he feels in his own tribe.

Eirlin needs the census taker to leave. Frustrated by all his counting, Eirlin cannot focus on preparing for her sister's coming-of-age ceremony. But when a snowstorm traps him there, Eirlin can no longer ignore her harsh attitude toward Leiv or why his presence makes her uneasy.

As the snow continues to fall, Leiv and Eirlin discover that late winter nights often lay bare the simplest things.
