The Ransom of Mercy Carter by Caroline B. Cooney J COO—It is 1704, during the French and Indian War, when Mohawk Indians attack the village of Deerfield, Massachusetts. They take 11 year old Mercy Carter and over one hundred other settlers and force them to walk 300 miles to Canada.   Mercy is then sent to live with a Mohawk family and her new life begins as an adopted Indian daughter. This is a very good and suspenseful historical fiction book for older readers
