A New York Times Bestseller Anne Hillerman brings together modern
mystery, Navajo traditions, and the evocative landscape of the
desert Southwest in this intriguing entry in the Leaphorn, Chee,
and Manuelito series. When Tribal Police Officer Bernadette
Manuelito arrives to speak at an outdoor character-building program
for at-risk teens, she discovers chaos. Annie, a young participant
on a solo experience due back hours before, has just returned and
is traumatized. Gently questioning the girl, Bernie learns that
Annie stumbled upon a human skeleton on her trek. While everyone is
relieved that Annie is back, they're concerned about a beloved
instructor who went out into the wilds of the rugged lava
wilderness bordering Ramah Navajo Reservation to find the missing
girl. The instructor vanished somewhere in the volcanic landscape
known as El Malpais. In Navajo lore, the lava caves and tubes are
believed to be the solidified blood of a terrible monster killed by
superhuman twin warriors. Solving the twin mysteries will expose
Bernie to the chilling face of human evil. The instructor's
disappearance mirrors a long-ago search that may be connected to a
case in which the legendary Joe Leaphorn played a crucial role. But
before Bernie can find the truth, an unexpected blizzard, a
suspicious accidental drowning, and the arrival of a new FBI agent
complicate the investigation. While Bernie searches for answers in
her case, her husband, Sergeant Jim Chee juggles trouble closer to
home. A vengeful man he sent to prison for domestic violence is
back--and involved with Bernie's sister Darleen. Their relationship
creates a dilemma that puts Chee in uncomfortable emotional
territory that challenges him as family man, a police officer, and
as a one-time medicine man in training. Anne Hillerman takes us
deep into the heart of the deserts, mountains, and forests of New
Mexico and once again explores the lore and rituals of Navajo
culture in this gripping entry in her atmospheric crime series.
