Joseph Marshall III was born on the Rosebud (Sicangu Lakota) Indian Reservation in what is now south-central South Dakota. Marshall has published numerous articles and books, including The Dance House: Stories from Rosebud and Oh Behalf of the Wolf and the First Peoples.
In the winter of 1750, a holy iron (flintlock rifle) and two Frenchmen are thrust into the lives of the Wolf tail band of the Sicangu Lakota. Whirlwind, a war chief, finds his people divided in their feelings about the intrusion of the holy iron into their lives and what it could mean to their future.
