Setting out to find his good friend and fellow Tribal
Policeman Delbert Nez, Officer Jim Chee is shocked to discover Nez's car in
flames and Nez unconscious inside. Badly burning himself to save his friend,
Chee is even more horrified to discover that Nez has already been fatally shot.
He doesn't have to go far to make an arrest: Ashie Pinto, a poor elderly Navajo
shaman staggers down the road near the scene of the crime with the murder
weapon
in one hand and a bottle in the other.
Chee's only bit of good fortune is Janet Pete's recent return
to Albuquerque to work for the Department of Justice. But his emotions become
mixed when he learns that she has taken on the defense of his friend's
murderer.
And Pete's task is made nearly impossible by Pinto's refusal to speak—even to
deny guilt in
the crime. Meanwhile, Lt. Joe Leaphorn is reluctantly persuaded by a relative
of
Pinto to investigate the case privately. As Leaphorn becomes more intrigued by
a
number of troubling and unanswered questions, Chee too is goaded into
investigative action through Pete's implication that he might not be doing all
he could to uncover a more complicated truth because the victim was a
friend.
Eventually, their separate trails lead both detectives to the
heart of a complex plot involving a historical find worth a fortune to one man
and even more to another's reputation. Coyote Waits is another
mesmerizing read that reinforces the brilliance of this bestselling author.
