Description
In this gripping mystery, Navajo Tribal Police officers Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee find themselves entangled in a series of ritualistic murders that blur the lines between the natural and the supernatural. When a fellow officer narrowly survives a brutal shotgun attack, the investigation uncovers a dark undercurrent of witchcraft and ancient beliefs. As Leaphorn and Chee delve deeper, they must confront the chilling legend of the skinwalker, a malevolent sorcerer capable of transforming into animal form, to unmask a killer operating beyond the reach of conventional law. Hillerman masterfully weaves together the stark beauty of the Navajo Nation with the complexities of human nature and the enduring power of tradition.
