About this audiobook

The twelfth title in the series finds the Wind River Reservation without another one of its sacred petroglyphs. The Red Cliff canyon has been home to these sacred petroglyphs, and their accompanying sacred spirits, for a few thousand years. Seven years ago, however, one was pried out of the canyon and stolen. Travis Birdsong sits in prison for killing his partner in the crime. Yet, he has always maintained his innocence in the death and has never been tried for stealing the petroglyph. Attorney Vicki Holden decides to take the case, much to the chagrin of her law partner and lover Adam Lone Eagle and the Wind River Reservation tribes. Vicki is convinced that Travis must be innocent because another petroglyph has been stolen out of the canyon. She is even more convinced after the thieves contact the mission priest, Father John O'Malley, in order to get the tribes to buy the artifact back. As Father John tries to get the petroglyph back and Vicki tries to prove Travis is innocent, the two situations collide.

    Another good book in the Wind River mystery series. It's a slow read but I enjoy learning about the Arapaho people.

    Of all Margaret Corel’s books, this has been my favorite. I have a few to go and can’t wait. Great plot and characters!

    This was a very long book, about 11 hours, and after 12 books, the formula wears: Vicki was too sick; she had two auto accidents; she risked herself to defend someone against injustice; blah-blah. Meanwhile, Father John has staff problems....again. And, we hear about the stolen petroglyphs ad Infiniti. And, a white guy is the perp....again. This book would be pretty good at about 6-7 hours.

    Stolen petroglyphs and a retired priest threaten the tribes and the mission on the Wind River Reservation in Wyoming in another thoughtful, well-done mystery that includes aspects of Arapaho Indian history.

    When a priceless Arapaho artifact, a petroglyph known as "The Drowning Man," is stolen by thieves who offer to ransom it back to the tribe, Arapaho attorney Vicky Holden and Father John O'Malley join forces to find the culprits and recover the petroglyphs, only to discover that the crime may be linked to an unsolved seven-year-old case involving stolen artifacts and murder.
