Solid start to a mystery series. Looking forward to reading more by Rendon, and hoping Long Braids is back in book two alongside Cash Blackbear, our badass young femme protag struggling with a history of being separated from her mother and siblings in 1970s N Dakota and Minnesota, which saw many Tribally affiliated children separated from their loving families and communities and placed into abusive white foster homes.
