Dance Hall of the Dead sees Navajo police officer Joe Leaphorn heading out to the Zuni Reservation, helping to investigate a potential murder that gets immediately complicated. Why was the boy killed? And what happened to the friend he was meeting?
There's a lot of things happening around the main story - solving the first murder and finding the missing boy - but some of it is connected. You'll have to read to figure out what is connected and how it's connected.
