Five Utah Native tribes want nearly two million acres set aside for Bears Ears Monument. To them it's sacred land containing thousands of ancient sites. For many Anglo locals, the rugged red rock lands are a profit source from extracting oil, gas, and uranium. And from digging up artifacts for the black market. Joe hopes to mend the tears in his relationship with his daughter. But the past haunts them and tension flares, especially because of another woman's presence--Felicity, a Chicago detective who became a big part of his life after his wife died.While the team is in town for a weekend of rest, his Navajo colleague on sentry duty is shot in the middle of the night. Given the local sheriff's half-hearted effort, Joe and Felicity decide to find out why. But before they make progress, Megan has a chilling encounter with artifact thieves. Then she disappears.
