Tribal Officer, Bernie Manuelito (Jim Chee's wife) is assigned to give a talk to a group of "troubled" teenage girls, who are out on a retreat doing a solo over-night stay in the Malpais Lava Flow: While Chee, is taking classes on advanced police work and having to deal with Bernie's spoiled, p.i.t.a. sister.
One of the counselors goes missing after locating one of the more problematic girls who left her campsite.
There is more to the story, but I really can't tell you because I found it dis-jointed with too many different sub-plots and I read through it quickly just to be done with it. I never warmed up to the story and I didn't like the majority of the characters, they were just shallow ugly people.
Also disappointing is the gratuitous mentions of Joe Leaphorn... It seems he's only written because he is expected to be a part of the story and the author really doesn't know how to fit him in.
As I stated I found this dis-jointed, confusing, rambling, & not really well written...
