A great mystery...

I love a good mystery, in which I can't guess the ending. I love Indian lore and I love female detectives. Now, in the dusty backwaters of the Cherokee Nation, Molly Bearpaw who is an investigator for the Native American Advocacy League and the sheriff's deputy D.J. Kennedy must find out why people in a nursing home seem to be in danger from botulism that strikes people dead without reason and without any hint of where it came from. Is there a killer? How are the murders linked? Greed, money and lies are mixed up into one great plot.
