Dean Little Horse, a talented young man, is missing on the Wind River Reservation. Ben Holden, Vicky Holden's ex- husband, a well known, and highly respected man on the reservation, is found murdered. And James Sherwood, who calls himself Orlando, has proclaimed himself the son of Wovoka, the prophet of the Ghost Dance religion that swept the plains in the 1880s with the promise of a new world, an Indian paradise.
While Father John searches for Dean, Vicky learns that she is the primary suspect in Ben's murder. Eventually, Father John and Vicky come to believe that Dean's disappearance and Ben's murder are connected...
And the connection is the shadow dancer. Racing against time, Father John and Vicky search for the evidence to prevent Vicky from being indicted for a murder she did not commit and to stop a killer from bringing about the fulfillment of his own apocalyptic prophecies.
