Cash Blackbear has been helping Sheriff Wheaton, who is her guardian, to solve some cases. Cash has dreams that sometimes help her understand things others don’t. The spring floods have been bad in the area around Fargo, and a young Native-American woman’s body has washed up. She has a page torn from a hymnal in both English and Ojibwe in her bra, but no ID. Wheaton asks Cash to find out who she is. When Cash goes to the small towns in the area, she comes across a little church that has a scary presence and sinister preacher. Cash is warned away from the church, but she feels it is there she will find answers she needs.

Marcie. R. Rendon has written a gripping mystery with enough fascinating characters and chilling problems to keep readers up reading until all hours. Cash is a great character with all the foibles one might expect with one so young and overly confident. The other characters populating her life and a setting that nearly becomes another character will make readers anxious for the next book in this series. Great writing, snappy dialogue, and a very compelling story make this a must-read for mystery fans.
