by James D Doss

The Shaman Sings (Charlie Moon Mysteries) Cover

 

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Welcome to southwestern Colorado’s Ute reservation—a place where the world of modern science and the mysticism of ages past murderously collide…

 

“Stunning.”—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

The shocking death of a female physics student has shattered the peaceful community of Granite Creek, Colorado—and police chief Scott Parrish has a hunch he can’t even begin to explain. He saw the killing…in his dreams. 

 “Doss mixes an equally potent brew of crime and Native American spirituality.”—Booklist

Daisy Perika experienced the same visions. An aged Ute shaman who lives in a trailer on the lonesome highlands, hers is the realm of the Native American spirit. But Daisy doesn’t need scientific proof to know that the student’s breakthrough discovery was to kill for. And it isn’t over yet.

 

“Magical and tantalizing.”

—New York Times Book Review

Parrish wants to believe that Daisy can unleash the truth. But will her visions of Coyote and fire make for evidence in a court of law? Now it’s up to Parrish and Daisy’s nephew, Tribal Police investigator Charlie Moon, to summon the supernatural and seize the killer—before he strikes again…

Synopsis:

A "Publishers Weekly" Best Book of the Year, this novel introduces Tribal Police investigator Charlie Moon, whose aunt, Ute shaman Daisy Perika, foresees the murder of a young woman. Daisy may be the only one who can summon the supernatural and seize the killer before he strikes again.
