| Summary | "Annette, the Metis Spy: A Heroine of the N.W. Rebellion" by J. E. Collins is a historical novel written in the late 19th century, likely around the time of the North-West Rebellion. The book follows the life of Annette, a young Metis woman, as she becomes embroiled in the conflict between the Metis and Canadian government forces. With woven themes of love, bravery, and rebellion, the narrative centers around Annette's interactions with notable figures of the time, including the leader Louis Riel, and her determination to protect those she loves. The opening of the novel introduces a picturesque prairie setting as two horsemen encounter Annette, who is singing alone. Their admiration for her beauty contrasts with her feelings of loneliness, prompting a complex interaction between her and one of the men, Riel, who admires her while also fueling potential conflict. Annette's journey reveals her struggle against unwanted advances and her growing awareness of the looming threats posed by both the government and the rebel factions. This opening sets the stage for a tale filled with intrigue, personal conflict, and the weighty theme of a young woman caught in a historical storm, making it a promising read for those interested in historical fiction with strong character development.
