When the police and FBI are baffled by a corpse found at a national park, they must rely on a psychic amateur sleuth to solve the mystery. The spirits of Native American ancestors are said to inhabit the sacred rocks at Petroglyph National Monument. So when an unidentified body is found there, everyone from the local police to the FBI are up in arms. But no one can figure out who the victim is until the CIA steps in, claiming that there is one person who might have answers: Harrie McKinsey. Now it seems everyone is keeping an eye on the infamous sleuth Harrie, even her FBI agent husband, DJ, who is mystified by his wife’s connection to the dead man. It’s going to be up to Harrie to use her psychic intuition and savvy sleuthing skills to find the killer—unless, of course, he gets her first . . . “Readers will slip right into this engaging tale of murder, camaraderie, complications and clever crime solving.” —Anne Hillerman, New York Times–bestselling author of the Leaphorn, Chee, Manuelito mystery series.

For a thousand years a hidden canyon on Rachael Yellowhorse's ancestral lands and the adjacent property owned by the Manygoats family has protected a masterpiece of petroglyphs deep inside the Navajo nation. These ancient works of art hold a secret with a power so strong their Anasazi makers kept them out of the reach of mere mortal human beings. At his Santa Fe Indian Market show, gallery owner Charles Bloom unwittingly promotes the sacred rock-art images and sets in motion a cascading series of events that leads to the worst kind of human being searching out these hidden petroglyphs. Little could Bloom know that his discerning eye for art would connect him to a chain of murders stretching back 40 years earlier and to an individual who is not a collector of Native art but a psychopathic killer, the likes of which the Diné have no word to describe. Bloom will need all his observational skills to spot the killer before it's too late. It's a race against ancient history and for Bloom, time may finally run out.
