About this title

Review:

Tony Hillerman’s novels are always eagerly awaited and highly praised:

‘Hillerman is strong on story, certain about character, and hard to over-recommend’
New Yorker

‘The man is a master’
The Independent

From the Back Cover:

The plague that decimated Europe in the fourteenth century appears to have returned today in the high, dry land of the American Southwest. But Tony Hillerman's famous pair of detectives, Jim Chee and Joe Leaphorn, discover an even deadlier killer. The victims include not only police but also scientists hunting the key to the dread disease. And the outcome links modern scientific techniques with age-old stories and habits.
