Western Justice

When human remains are found at the Vore Buffalo Jump, the short-staffed local sheriff's department requests assistance from Park Service Investigators Doug and Jill Fletcher. ATV tracks lead the investigators to the victim's boots and a hunting blind constructed on the edge of the Black Hills National Forest. With more questions than answers the Fletchers find themselves pulled into the community dynamics of tiny Aladdin (population 15) where the café and general store are the hub of information for the county. The surprising identification of the victim only opens more questions about him, and his connection to the location of his murder. When the Fletchers follow up on the few leads provided by John Doe's identification, they unwittingly open a can of worms.
