A lone American sails the rugged Pacific coast of British Columbia. In the night, he takes refuge in a secluded cove. Dawn reveals that the cove is not deserted, for nestled near its shore is a rustic floating home in which a native woman lives, gleaning her sustenance from nature’s bounty in the old way. Was it chance, fate, or some mystical unseen force that brought Ian to Yvonne's remote cove? Yvonne has lived to see her once proud people’s inexorable decline toward oblivion. To her people, Yvonne is known as Hummingbird Dances, the name she was given when she was claimed by the spirit of a hummingbird that came to her in a vision. Ian is revealed to be a man haunted by tragic loss. He sails the wilds to escape the past that haunts and torments him. Together they embark on a voyage that carries them to the traditional home of Yvonne’s people. Seen through Ian’s eyes, Yvonne discovers the true significance of the sacred mountain that has long borne witness to her people’s plight. Ian embraces the ways of Yvonne's people. On a vision quest, he is claimed by the eagle spirit. His vision is an enigma, but with the help of tribal elder Gray Wolf, he can begin to interpret its meaning. His vision shows him the path he must take if his scarred body, mind, and spirit are ever to heal. But his torment will continue until he accepts the guidance of the spirits. In Ian, Yvonne finds a love she did not seek nor ever hope to find. And Ian must face his greatest fear: love. In each other, Yvonne and Ian find new hope for the future. But soon it seems that circumstances conspire to tear them apart and destroy all that they’ve found.Ian and Yvonne’s journey seems to be inexplicably interwoven with that of a family of Bald Eagles as their paths repeatedly cross. Do the eagles merely observe them or could it be that their spirits guide them? All is revealed in the end.Hummingbird Has Spoken is an enthralling tale of an unlikely love. At times humorous, always adventurous, and often titillating, this is a page turner.
