Description

On the windswept plains of Wyoming's Wind River Reservation, tensions rise as the Ethete powwow approaches. For tribal chairman Harvey Castle, this sacred gathering is meant to reaffirm balance and harmony in life. But when his body is found, all signs point to a shocking crime: murder by his own nephew, Anthony. Two unlikely investigators emerge from the shadows: Father John O'Malley, a history scholar and pastor, and Vicky Holden, an attorney returning to her roots on the reservation. As they delve into the mystery, their search takes them across the high plains, from intimate community centers to a complex web of corruption that threatens to upend the very fabric of Arapaho life. In the "Old Time," where outsiders rarely venture, Father John uncovers a glimpse of Arapaho culture few have ever seen - and a crime that challenges everything he thought he knew.
