Zeke and Ned

As a cchild, Zeke Proctor walked the Trail of Tears from Gerogia to the Indian Territory, acquiring through that bitter struggle a fierce loyalty to the Cherokee way. Though a family man and a respected member of the Cherokee senate,Zeke is also an adventurous character with a fatally roving eye. Ned Christie is tall and charismatic, and the kind of good looks that appeal to women all over the District. But Ned's heart is set on Jewel, Zeke's beautiful young daughter.
