Synopsis
Crime busters Leaphorn and Chee are back together on a case and at odds with the FBI in a great addition to Tony Hillerman’s acclaimed series.
A pre-dawn raid on the Ute tribe’s gambling casino leaves one policeman dead, a deputy sheriff wounded and the criminals vanished into the maze of canyons on the Arizona border. The FBI take over the manhunt, but the high-tech investigation grinds to a halt in this unusual territory. It is not until Chee and Leaphorn arrive on the scene that the connection to a famous Ute legend enables the solution to the case.
Tony Hillerman, winner of the Edgar and the Grandmaster Awards from the Mystery Writers of America, has written many novels. The First Eagle (also featuring Leaphorn and Chee) was published by HarperCollins in 1999.

From the Back Cover
"Hillerman is strong on story, certain about character, and hard to over-recommend."
NEW YORKER
Crimebusters Leaphorn and Chee are back together on a case, and at odds with the FBI over a backcountry manhunt in this latest addition to Tony Hillerman's international bestselling series.
Three men stage a pre-dawn raid on one of the Ute tribe's gambling casinos. They kill one policeman, wound another, and disappear into the maze of canyons on the state border. The FBI take over the investigation from the local police, and become convinced that the wounded deputy sheriff is the key suspect. This brings Chee and Leaphorn onto the scene and they – finding remarkable parallel between the crime and the exploits of the legendary Ute bandit hero – are convinced that they have discovered a fatal flaw in the FBI theory.
"Tony Hillerman is a wonderful story teller which means you believe every word he says."
