The Murder of Jules de Vendome

The time is the early 1670s. Tensions are growing between the woodland tribes of New England and the English who have now arrived in the area. Where the Dutch, who preceded the English, came to trade for the bounty of the land, the English have come to take the land and create settlements.
The ability of the new settlers to make devastating war has already been demonstrated to other tribes with the defeat of the Pequot. Relations with the English trading posts in the Narragansett lands are showing distrust between those who come to trade and those who have items that are desired. Yet, there are a few of the English who truly see value in the ways of the Indigenous Peoples. Among them are Roger Williams, founder of the colony, and Jules de Vendome, late of "New France". When murder occurs, justice must be rendered. This is still a time when the supernatural is attributed to the unknown.
This gripping tale of murder in the wilderness of a colony in the New World, and the manner in which justice is wrought, speaks to the wisdom only a few recognize in the intelligence of members of a woodland tribe of New England.
