The Last Generation

Bridget Thorsdottir is a seventeen-year-old girl living during the waning days of the Norse colony in Greenland in the year 1501. At the brink of an age of discovery, her colony has been taken over by a new bishop who turned the people's farms into a more lucrative fishing village. The lone voice of opposition in this sea of change is Bridget's own father, Thor, whose stubborn adherence to his farm makes it harder and harder for him to pay the rising taxes owed to the bishop. When Thor refuses to give up his ways and leave the family home, Bridget realizes that it is up to her to make the dangerous journey to the New World in order to establish a new life for herself and her family.
