ICE BURIAL: The Oldest Human Murder Mystery (The Mother People Series Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
He preferred to stay behind her so she would not notice that the stiffness in his joints was worse. He would be glad to get home and go to the healer again. She had inserted thin wooden needles purified by fire in certain spots along his legs and back and twisted them gently. The treatment had helped and it would again. In the meantime it was best to pay no attention to the pain, Lief told himself firmly. He quickened his pace. Zena looked back at him anxiously. Despite Lief’s stoic efforts to hide his pain, she was fully aware of the discomfort he suffered. She wished now that they had taken the shorter route home from Runor’s village with the others. Wanting some time alone, she and Lief had decided to go north and make a circle over the mountain beyond her Kyrie and return to the village on the mountain path she had looked at so often from her high outpost. It was a route they had always wanted to explore.
