This historical fiction, Bound for Inca Snows begins with the boy Ninan, son of the Inca ruler Huayna Capac, witnessing a fight between his parents about surrendering his baby sister, Kaya, to the priests of Inti, the Sun God. The stories of Ninan and Kaya are told in succeeding chapters: Ninan, the son and heir to the ruler, traveling all over the empire; and Kaya, a sequestered religious seer and weaver in the mountaintop retreat, Machu Picchu.
