Overview

A brilliant 20-story journey into two cultures, white and Indian, and two time periods, historical and modern. There is mystery here, and suspense, there are hints of the supernatural, there are dreams and visions, there is realism and imagination. Threading through this unique anthology is a search for truths that are deeper and more profound than can be unearthed by mere detection. In ¿The Man in Her Dreams,¿ tribal attorney Vicky Holden meets evil in her dreams and then in daylight. In ¿Murder on the Denver Express,¿ indomitable Molly Brown risks her social position¿and her life¿to solve a murder. In ¿The Man Who Thought He Was a Deer,¿ sheriff¿s deputy Shelly Maginnis faces, with compassion, one of the strangest cases of her career. In ¿Otto¿s Sons,¿ Father John weighs what is legal against what is right, just, and merciful. Here, too, is the entire, extraordinary collection of Margaret Coel¿s ¿Arapaho Ten Commandments¿ short stories, all set on the Wind River reservation, and gathered for the first time in one place. Also included in this comprehensive volume are several fascinating essays by Coel. They give an intimate view of her creative process and of the marriage of history and fiction by a woman who has earned honor and renown in both fields. With sensitivity, clarity, and the passion of a born storyteller, Margaret Coel shares these unforgettable tales of the American West that she knows so well and loves so much.
