Hot on the heels of his bestselling The Howling Wind, Tony Hilleman brings back Chi and Liphorn in a mind-bending new mystery
The body of a well-dressed man is found hidden under brush on the Jicarilla Apache Reservation, with all identification missing. The local FBI takes over the investigation from Navajo police officer Jim Chee and quickly takes the case to Washington. Washington refuses to cooperate, and the case is at a standstill. When Hilleman’s “legendary lieutenant” Joe Liphorn of the Navajo Tribal Police Department discovers that Washington officials are withholding the body’s identity, the clues unexpectedly connect to a case he was investigating at an exotic hunting ranch. A photo she sent him tells Chee that she is in danger he cannot understand.
Hilleman creates a host of unusual characters in this fascinating novel that is sure to keep readers puzzled until the last page.
