Summary:

From the USA Today bestselling author, "a powerful writer of deep emotions, breathtaking natural beauty, and nail-biting suspense."--*Publishers Weekly Whenever the Feds need help in the tribal territories, they send in FBI special agent Anna Turnipseed, a Modoc Indian, and Bureau of Indian Affairs Investigator Emmett Parker, a Comanche. "A memorable literary pair, "* Anna and Emmett have seen some strange cases, but this one may be the oddest one yet... Brenda Two Kettles, an elder of the Oneida Tribe, has been found dead in a cornfield, every major bone in her body shattered. She seems to have fallen from the sky, like Sky Woman of the Oneido creation myth. But when Anna and Emmett discover that Brenda was at the center of a bitter land dispute between Native Americans and white settlers, the team must figure out where myth ends--and a deadly reality begins... Praise for the Parker and Turnipseed novels:
