But “Not in Shame,” a new book by Dale Koch, was published by Dorrance Publishing Co., Inc.

Molly Bannon hates Texas. When she was ten years old, her parents moved the family from Illinois to the vast plains of the American Southwest in the hope of giving Molly and her younger sister Rachel a better life.

For six years, Molly drags herself through the dusty wasteland until one fateful night.

In the light of the full moon, a band of Comanche warriors attacks the Bannons’ house, kills Mr. and Mrs. Bannon, and takes their daughters hostage.

Rachel is taken in by the Comanches and adopted and raised by a couple from her tribe. Molly, on the other hand, is too old to join the people; so she is sold as a slave to work for the Comanches in another camp. Now separated from her sister, Molly vows to save her from her unscrupulous kidnappers and bring her to safety. She has no idea that her story with the Comanches will last for many years.

Her fate and that of her sister are now irrevocably linked for the rest of their lives.
