Famed for capturing the flavor of Hispanic New Mexico, Rudolfo Anaya now plunges his charismatic Sonny Baca into his most fascinating mystery yet.
Wheelchair-bound by day, Alburquerque P.I. Sonny Baca is tormented by night with strange dreams: One by one, his female ancestors are abducted before his eyes. Soon Sonny learns the worst. His old archenemy, Raven, is controlling the nightmares and planning to destroy Sonny's past. In present-day Alburquerque, the situation is just as chilling: Young women are being kidnapped and the only clues are four black feathers. Now Sonny must detect the connection between the spirit world and this all-too-worldly city ...before more lives are lost and even the earth itself is threatened.
