A Wind River Mystery
BY MARGARET COEL
ABOUT THE BOOK:
First Time in Paperback
New York Times bestselling author Margaret Coel returns to the Wind River Reservation with Arapaho attorney Vicky Holden and Father John O’Malley investigating a mystery overshadowed by a mythological miracle…
A mysterious penitent confesses to murder, and then flees the confessional before Father John can identify him. Two months later, Vicky discovers rancher Dennis Carey shot dead in his truck along Blue Sky Highway. With the tragic news comes the exposure of an astonishing secret: the most sacred creature in Native American mythology, a white buffalo calf, was recently born on Carey’s ranch.
The miraculous animal draws a flood of pilgrims to the reservation, frustrating Vicky and Father John’s already difficult investigation as they try to unravel the strange events surrounding both Carey’s murder and the recent disappearances of three cowboys from his ranch.
It could be coincidence, given a cowboy’s nomadic life, but Vicky doesn’t believe in coincidences. And at the back of Father John’s mind is the voice from the man in the confessional: I killed a man…

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Margaret Coel is the New York Times best-selling author of
the acclaimed Wind River mystery series set among the
Arapahos on Wyoming's Wind River Reservation and featuring
Jesuit priest Father John O'Malley and Arapaho attorney
Vicky Holden.
She is a native Coloradan who hails from a pioneer Colorado family. The West — the mountains, plains, and vast spaces — are in her bones, she says. She moved out of Colorado on two occasions — to attend Marquette University and to spend a couple of years in Alaska. Both times she couldn't wait to get back.
Meet Father John O’Malley, history scholar and recovering alcoholic, and Vicky Holden, who after ten years in the outside world, has returned to the Arapaho Indian reservation in Wyoming where she was born, to help her people, and solve crimes.

Night of the White Buffalo sounds intriguing. I am interested in discovering the connection between the murder victim and the missing cowboys. Also the white buffalo calf is a wonderful addition.

I found the idea of a murder with a setting of Western Americana to be interesting! I have never read any of Margaret Coel's novels. Thanks for the opportunity.

This is an unusual mystery. I now some about the mythology of the white buffalo so that really makes me want to read it.

This looks awesome! I love reading about the folklore of Native Americans, as it is fascinating to me. Also the fact that the murderer confessed - and left. A priest and an attorney working together to solve a mystery on a reservation - absolutely interesting and enticing novel! jeaniedannheim (at) ymail (dot) com
On her web site, I learned that Margaret Coel often uses real crimes to base her novels on. I don't remember learning that before, but have been blessed to only read one so far. jeaniedannheim (at) ymail (dot) cocm
