The Wailing Wind continues Hillerman's series with Joe Leaphorn (the wise old guy) and Jim Chee (the newcomer to the police force on the rez). They, of course, don't love the FBI, but now they're all tangled up together in the loose details from a previous case of Leaphorn's, supposedly solved and filed away. As usual, the scene is the sere and gorgeous country around the Four Corners area in the American Southwest. An abandoned pickup truck holds the body of a white man, which leads back in time to two previous murders, the disappearance of the wife of one of the dead men, an old gold mine, and an incident that had been dismissed as nothing more than a Halloween prank. And then, naturally, there's a simmering and problematic love interest for Chee and the latest new lady in his life.
