Publisher's summary

From the award-winning author of the Cash Blackbear series comes a compelling novel of a Native American woman who learns of the disappearance of one of her own and decides enough is enough.

All they heard was her scream.

Quill has lived on the Red Pine reservation in Minnesota her whole life. She knows what happens to women who look like her. Just a girl when Jimmy Sky jumped off the railway bridge and she ran for help, Quill realizes now that she’s never stopped running. As she trains for the Boston Marathon early one morning in the woods, she hears a scream. When she returns to search the area, all she finds are tire tracks and a single beaded earring.

Things are different now for Quill than when she was a lonely girl. Her friends Punk and Gaylyn are two women who don’t know what it means to quit; her loving husband, Crow, and their two beautiful children challenge her to be better every day. So when she hears a second woman has been stolen, she is determined to do something about it—starting with investigating the group of men working the pipeline construction just north of their homes.

As Quill closes in on the truth about the missing women, someone else disappears. In her quest to find justice for all of the women of the reservation, she is confronted with the hard truths of their home and the people who purport to serve them. When will she stop losing neighbors, friends, family? As Quill puts everything on the line to make a difference, the novel asks searing questions about bystander culture, the reverberations of even one act of crime, and the long-lasting trauma of being considered invisible.

Poignant Story…Worth the Wait!

I have read all of Marcie R Reardon’s books and was anxiously awaiting the release of this newest audiobook. I am intrigued by Native culture, in fact I live in the mountains of northeastern Arizona on the New Mexico border where we are in the vicinity of 4 Native American Reservations. My favorite literary genre is mystery and Ms. Reardon has fast become one of my favorite writers in this category. Her novels are relevant, her characters are realistic, and her storylines are engaging.

This latest novel does not disappoint! It is brilliantly written with an exciting storyline and unexpected twists and turns. Thank you again Ms. Reardon! Please don’t make us wait too long for your next book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
