I didn't even realize that Tony Hillerman wrote novels that didn't involve the Navajo Tribal Police. But since I'm planning a trip to New Mexico this summer, I decided to run by the library and get another Tony Hillerman book that would transport me to the sacred lands of the Navajo. To my surprise, this book takes place in Southeast Asia during the last days of American military involvement in that area while American personnel are in the chaos of leaving. Moon Mathias's brother was killed in Vietnam and Moon is stunned when he receives a phone call telling him that his brother left behind an infant daughter. So off Moon goes to Vietnam and then into Cambodia. As the story unfolds, Mathias find that he is looking for himself as well as his brother's child.
