Reseña del libro "Murder at Medicine Lodge (en Inglés)"
"Another great storyteller is emerging."-Tony Hillerman Award-winning author Mardi Oakley Medawar In 1867, the Kiowa travel to Medicine Lodge, Kansas, along with the Comanche, Arapaho, Apache, and Cheyenne to meet with representatives of the U.S. government and to sign peace treaties. But not all of the Kiowa agree that the peace treaty is a good thing, and tensions between them and the U.S. Army ("The Blue Jackets") are running high. So, when the army bugler disappears and White Bear, chief of the Rattle Band, finds his bugle out on the plains, the army command assumes that White Bear has killed the man to steal it. To make matters worse, the bugler's body is later found-murdered-out on the plains. With the army set to try White Bear for murder, and the Kiowa set to declare war if he is not found innocent, Tay-bodal-a healer amongst the Kiowa-is charged by the Principal Chief to investigate and clear White Bear's name. With very little time before an army tribunal is to be held, Tay-bodal must find out the truth about the bugler-a man he doesn't know-and what might have actually happened out there on the plains. "Medawar, a Cherokee, reveals legendary Native Americans as believable people and offers her readers a comprehensive look at historical Kiowa life and values."-Publishers Weekly "Her characters, white or Indian, are people...This is our history." -Don Coldsmith, award-winning author of Runestone
