This mystery mingles Choctaw culture, science, and murder and features Lieutenant Sam Chitto of the Oklahoma Choctaw Tribal Police, who considers himself a man of the Law—the letter of the Law—and he’s a man of his word. But he’s at a breaking point, ready to quit the force. His father’s murder is ten-years cold, his young wife’s premature death haunts him, and tribal police in Oklahoma are being prevented from ensuring the People receive justice. A mix of tribal and non-tribal lands has created a checkerboard law enforcement community—federal, state, municipal, and Indian—a land that lawbreakers joking refer to as lawless. Indian women are the ones paying the highest pride. One in three can expect to be raped in her lifetime, and the tribal police cannot arrest the assailant if he is not Indian. Then, Chitto is assigned to work undercover on a mystifying case. As murders multiply, a series of seemingly unrelated incident come together to help Chitto solve the mystery, but he is forced to make a decision that could not only challenge is personal code of ethics but also cost a man his life.
