The Shaman Laughs (Shaman Mysteries (Paperback))
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
What Tony Hillerman has done for the Navajo tribes of the American Southwest, James Doss seems intent on pulling off for the Utes of Colorado--creating mysteries that are as unique and different as the people and the lands they inhabit. His second book about Ute policeman Charlie Moon is full of dark myth and modern murder, all about the means people invent to fill up the holes in their lives. If you missed it, Doss's equally impressive first book about Moon, The Shaman Sings, is also available in paperback.
Book Description
On Native-American land, in a lonely, mystical place called the Canyon of the Spirit, prize livestock is being slaughtered as part of some strange and secret rite.
Darkness is stalking the reservation, and Ute tribal policeman Charlie Moon fears for his world and his people.
Because now the ritual is spilling human blood.
A terrifying rash of sacrificial murders has left Moon shaken, yet determined to find answers. The bizarre killings have shattered Anglo policeman Scott Parris's belief in a rational, explainable world. But it Daisy Perika, an aging Ute shaman, who holds the key. For only she who communes with the ancient spirits can truly comprehend the evil that has descended upon southwestern Colorado--an evil that is hungry. . . and all too real.
