With him he carries the ghosts of a partner killed in action, three failed marriages, and a long affair with the bottle. And now he's about to face the most dangerous case of his career—one that begins with a body that doesn't stay buried.
The corpse of a woman, brutally murdered and bizarrely mutilated, is discovered on Havasupai Nation land. Parker is paired with FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed in a hastily assembled task force of two. The two share a mixed Native American ancestry—and little else. As they are pulled deeper into a complex case, Parker suspects they are being led, like Custer to a Little Bighorn, into a killer's trap.At the heart of it are the dead, and history is the most lethal weapon of all.

Kirk Mitchell served as a deputy sheriff on the Paiute-Shoshone Indian reservations of the desert country that includes Death Valley, and was a SWAT sergeant in Southern California before beginning his career as a full-time writer. This Edgar Award–nominated author lives in the Sierra Nevada of California.

Reviews
“Tony Hillerman, watch your back: Kirk Mitchell, a former sheriff’s deputy who patrolled the Native American reservations of Inyo County, Calif., has concocted an exciting new competitor for the bestselling Jim Chee-Joe Leaphorn Navajo mysteries…Mitchell knows his turf and delivers a savory whodunit without remorse.”
“If Mr. Mitchell was as good a policeman as he is a writer, there must not have been a criminal standing when he retired.”
“Cry Dance deserves to be read both by mystery fans and those who relish American Indian culture.”
“A taut thriller…Parker and Turnipseed make a memorable literary pair.”
“A good purchase, especially for Tony Hillerman fans.”
“Nail-bitingly intense…A breathless page-turner…with memorable Native American myths and an outdoorsman’s respect for the Southwest’s brutal beauty.”
“The novel’s final scenes are truly creepy and caused much nail biting on my part.”
