Summary
Loaded with e-book extras (not available in the print edition), including Tony Hillerman's running commentary on his work and his series heroes Leaphorn and Chee; plus a special profile of the Navajo nation.When a bullet kills Officer Jim Chee's friend Del, a Navajo shaman is arrested for homicide, but the case is far from closed -- and requires Joe Leaphorn's involvement, as well.The car fire didn't kill Officer Jim Chee's good friend, Navajo Tribal Policeman Delbert Nez -- a bullet did. A whiskey-soaked Navajo shaman is found with the murder weapon. The old man is Ashie Pinto. He's quickly arrested for homicide and defended by a woman Chee could either love or loathe. But when Pinto won't utter a word of confession or denial, Lt. Joe Leaphorn begins an investigation. Soon, Leaphorn and Chee unravel a complex plot of death involving an historical find, a lost fortune ... and the mythical Coyote, who is always waiting, and always hungry.
