A man in a wolf mask disrupts a peyote ceremony, killing Michael Soto, owner of Sabado Indian Arts in Santa Fe. The following day, Detective Fernando Lopez, from a prominent local family, receives a report from two Zuni about a stolen carved wooden war god, linked to Soto, who was allegedly trying to sell it for fifty thousand dollars. Shortly after, news of Soto's murder reaches him. Determining the events and attendees of the ceremony proves challenging, with conflicting witness accounts regarding the number and identity of those present. Some blame supernatural forces for Soto's death, complicating the investigation. Detective Lopez's inquiry reveals deep cultural and ethnic divides in Santa Fe, a city rich in Native American, Hispanic, and Anglo histories. His search leads him into the perilous world of stolen Indian artifacts, exposing looters, grave robbers, and affluent gallery owners involved in the black market. Alongside artisans creating counterfeit replicas, Lopez's pursuit of truth culminates in a violent showdown at a trading post near Zuni Pueblo, where the shocking reality is finally unveiled. Includes Readers Guide.
