The News of the World by Paulette Jiles

After the Civil War Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd agrees to transport a recently rescued captive of the Kiowa back to her relatives. The two lonely survivors begin to trust each other, and Captain Kidd is faced with a terrible choice: abandon the girl to her fate or become--in the eyes of the law--a kidnapper himself.
