From the Author:

Much of this book comes from my own history.
My first non-series book, HOTH reflects some of my own history as a librarian on an Indian reservation. The Native American stories and legends are the real Tohono O'othham legends I learned as a story teller on the reservation. This book would appeal to readers who enjoy Tony Hillerman, although my regular fans should be advised that this is an "R" rather than a "PG-13" read.
