In "Hunting Season," a hunter becomes the hunted. When police think a shooting death of a Jemez Pueblo man is a hunting accident, it's up to an Indian newspaper reporter to find out what really happened. A sick, elderly Cochiti Pueblo man evades attempts to send him to a hospital in "An Unwilling Patient." Instead, he chooses to go into the mountains to spend his final days. A sheriff's deputy who has known him since boyhood is worried and goes looking for the old man. In "The Ancestor," a Tiwa tribal policeman is torn between the dominant society's law and his own people's beliefs when an Old One's bones are discovered in a housing development. In "The Woman with a Rain Pot," a veteran of the U.S. war in Iraq who sacrificed a leg for his country becomes a detective. He must solve the year-old cold case of an anthropology student who was murdered while illegally digging for artifacts near Acoma Pueblo. "To Steal What Is Sacred" explores the criminal market for the sale of ancient, stolen Indian artifacts. And in "Shadows of a Lost Time," an archaeology student sees spirits from the past while excavating a 500-year-old pueblo ruin in 1934, and that experience persuades him to rethink his career.

I'd forgotten the pleasure of reading a short story - you get the thrill of conflict, character development and resolution without staying up all night. At least that's what happens in the hands of a thoroughly competent writer. Herrick manages to convey the central, universal theme of each story while, at the same time, providing insight into the wounded psyche of a war veteran and giving the reader a fascinating picture of the myths and customs of Pueblo communities and the individuals within them. A lovely collection not to be missed.Product details
