Description: Called in by his aunt, Ute tribal elder Daisy Perika, when she experiences a terrifying vision of unnatural death, Charlie Moon, aided by FBI Special Agent Lila Mae McTeague, investigates the killing of an elderly Nevada man.

"Daisy Perika is no stranger to eerie dreams, but when she has a nightmare, lives could be at stake. Convinced that her visions of a wisp-thin girl with blood dripping from her hands are omens, the old woman calls on her nephew, Charlie Moon. A part-time tribal investigator and full-time Colorado rancher, Moon is often skeptical of his aunt's mystical ways. And this time, much as he wants to believe her, Daisy just can't get a clear vision of the girl's face. Moon is ready to give up...until he gets a call about Sarah Frank. An Ute-Papago orphan that fits Daisy's vision, Sarah seems to be involved in a very real murder. But by the time Moon crosses the border to investigate, he's too late: Not only has Sarah vanished with a one-of-a-kind family heirloom, but Moon isn't the only ones on her trail..." -- Publisher's description
