Description

Don’t miss the TV series, Dark Winds, based on the Leaphorn, Chee, & Manuelito novels, now on AMC and AMC+!  

“An extraordinary display of sheer plotting craftsmanship.”—New York Times Book Review

Legendary detectives Leaphorn and Chee must battle uncooperative feds as they hunt for a clever murderer in this classic Southwestern mystery from acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Tony Hillerman.

Sergeant Jim Chee of the Navajo Tribal Police, a dedicated Navajo detective, is troubled by the nameless corpse discovered just inside his jurisdiction, at the edge of the Jicarilla Apache natural gas field. More troubling still is the FBI’s insistence that the Bureau take over the case, calling the unidentified victim’s death a “hunting accident.” 

But if a hunter was involved, Chee knows the prey was intentionally human. “Legendary Lieutenant” Joe Leaphorn agrees. Once again he’s is pulled out of retirement by the possibility of serious wrongs being committed against the Navajo nation by the Washington bureaucracy. Yet it is former policewoman Bernadette Manuelito, recently relocated to Customs Patrol at the U.S.–Mexico border, who possibly holds the key to unlocking a fiendishly twisted political and corporate crime conspiracy of greed, lies, and murder . . . and whose only hope for survival now rests in the hands of friends too far away for comfort.

    One of my top 3 favorite Tony Hillerman novels; the mystery & intrigue kept me on the edge of my seat until the the last page! - George Guidall’s narration is what makes Hillerman novels on tape so good.
