About This Book
An Indian police chief discovers a staked body near the reservation, prompting the agent to involve county authorities and begin an inquiry. A previously mailed warning from a young woman to her uncle, intercepted by the local postmaster, connects the victim to a nearby ranch and sparks accusations of mail tampering. Townspeople, agency officials, and ranch hands converge as suspicion and secret alliances surface, and investigators piece together motives and opportunity. The story proceeds through a series of investigative episodes that gradually reveal hidden relationships, deceit, and escalating danger centered on the ranch and the road where the murder occurred.
