FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed, a Modoc Indian from California, and Bureau of Indian Affairs
Investigator Emmett Parker, a Comanche from Oklahoma, are a team, sent by the Feds wherever
there are problems in tribal territory.

This assignment takes them to upstate New York where Brenda Two Kettles, an elder of the Oneida tribe,
was found dead in a cornfield, every major bone in her body shattered. She seems to have fallen from the
sky, like Sky Woman of the Oneida creation myth. When Anna and Emmett discover that Brenda was the
center of a bitter land dispute between Indians and whites, they are sure she was murdered. Their
investigation brings them face to face with the dangers of race war, and soon their own lives depend on
Anna's instincts and her ability to see the line where myth and reality come together.
