In this harrowing novel, three Minnesotan women search for one of their own who's gone missing about their reservation, but the threat is close to home, and any of them could be the next to disappear...
Quill has lived on the Fond du Lac reservation in Minnesota her whole life. She knows what happens to people who look like her. She was there when Jimmy Sky jumped off the railway bridge when he felt there was no alternative to his life, so she ran, and she's been running ever since. But as she trains for the Boston marathon one early morning out in the woods, she hears a scream. When she goes to investigate, she finds tire tracks and a lone, beaded earring.
Things are different now for Quill than when she was a lonely girl. She has friends in the form of Punk and Gaylyn-two women who don't know what it means to quit; she has her loving husband Crow, and two beautiful children who challenge her to be better every day. So, when she realizes another woman has been stolen, she determines to do something, and her first stop is the group of men working the pipeline construction just north of their homes.
Just as Quill closes in on the truth behind the missing woman in the woods, someone else disappears. In her quest to find justice for the women of the reservation, Quill is confronted with the hard truths of their reservation and the people who purport to serve them. When will Quill stop losing neighbors, friends, family? When will people notice?
