Summary

Paul Rice gets a frantic call about his friend Little Bull from the Lakota's girlfriend, Mary Walking Bear, informing Paul that the Minnesota police are after Little Bull for killing the governor over a planned Indian casino. Paul drops everything and heads for Minnesota, taking Taylor Rawls with him, assuming that Little Bull will be in need of a good attorney.

Once the court fight starts and Paul begins digging into the case, he finds that some people in the justice system don't like Indians. He learns about the Lakota legend of the Devil's Tooth and the power of the Indian shaman, all of which shed new light on who killed the governor and why.
