- Summary
- Since his retirement from the Navajo Tribal Police, Joe Leaphorn has occasionally been enticed to return to work by former colleagues who seek his help when they need to solve a particularly puzzling crime. But this time, the problem is with an old case of Joe's that continues to haunt him. And with officers Jim Chee and Bernie Manuelito just back from their honeymoon, Leaphorn is pretty much on his own. In 1965, fugitive Ray Shawnack was supposed to have died in a blaze that consumed a trading post. But now Joe has been sent a picture of a priceless tribal rug that was also thought to have burned in the fire. If the rug survived, could Shawnack have escaped as well? When the man who brought the photo to Leaphorn's attention goes missing, Leaphorn must pick up the threads of a crime he'd thought impossible to untangle. Not only has the passage of time obscured the details, but it also appears that there's a murderer still on the loose
