The Northern Lights Series

The Northern Lights Series captures the rich heritage of Bonnie Leon’s Aleut ancestors and brings to life the beauty and danger of living in nineteenth century Alaska.

The Journey Of Eleven Moons - Book One

A successful walrus hunt means Anna and her beloved Kinauquak will soon be joined in marriage. But before they can seal their promise to one another, a tsunami wipes their tribe from the rugged shore-everyone except Anna and her little sister, Iya, who are left alone to face the Alaskan wilderness.

A stranger, a Civil-War veteran with golden hair and blue eyes, wanders the untamed Aleutian Islands. He offers help, but can Anna trust him or his God? And if she doesn’t, how will she and Iya survive?

In The Land Of White Nights - Book Two

Book two in the Northern Lights series continues the saga of Anna, an Aleutian Indian, and Erik as they begin their married life on the frontier of Alaska.

Confronted with many challenges, including racism, the couple is determined to persevere and set a Christian example of forgiveness and love.

Return To The Misty Shore - Book Three

It’s 1889 in Juneau, Alaska, and sixteen-year-old Luba Engstrom is sure she’s old enough to make her own decisins. Though Anna, Erik, and their three children are contented living in Juneau, Luba wonders if there isn’t more to life than this small northern city. Then she falls in love with strong, silent Nicholas. Luba is soon convinced that she must marry this man, whether her parents approve or not. But Nicholas is only visiting Juneau and plans to return to his home in the Aleutian Islands.

When Luba impulsively runs away with him, the consequences affect not only the family she leaves behind but also her own happiness and faith.
