(3) YA In the Andaman Islands hundred of miles off India's coast, fifteen-year-old Uido has been chosen as her tribe's spiritual leader. Threats of the human and natural varieties pose challenges Uido could never have foreseen. The lyrical story, a portrayal of a fictional tribe and island, is based on actual peoples largely removed (by choice) from mainstream twenty-first century civilization.
