Photographer Cassie Cassidy goes to a rendezvous where she hopes to get photos of American Indians in action.
Unfortunately, she meets a reporter who gets into an argument with her. Cass had proven that a photo used by the reporter had been doctored.
Soon after, Cass comes upon the body of a man killed with a tommy hawk.
When she gives her statement to the deputy sheriff, she can tell by the man's aggressive behavior that he sees her as a suspect in the murder.
The writing is colorful as we learn of Indian traditions and the realism that re-enactors feel about the rendezvous and their outfits.
Cass has few friends who take her side and we follow her attempt to prove her innocence.
The setting is picturesque and I compliment the author on an original story filled with historical images. In addition, the author gives a good example of a female character, in a male dominated society, bravely fighting to prove she isn't a killer.
I enjoyed reading this story and hope that it serves to give the author a wider following.
