Ten-year old Bones lives with her parents on the edge of a magnificent Florida swamp. Bone’s father, Nolay, who is part Miccosukee Indian, is wise, but he’s also as inquisitive as a raccoon. Her mama is as practical as corn bread. The Summer of 1949 is drawing to an end when a couple of Yankee real estate agents show up and Nolay chases them away with a gun. Not long after, Bones and her best friend, Little Man, discover something horrible out in the swamp. Their small community is rocked by the news of two murders within two weeks. As evidence pointing toward Nolay mounts up, Bone’s life begins to unravel. Her father’s innocence rests in the hands of bumbling Sheriff LeRoy, who Bones thinks is as slow as pond water. Bones is determined to take matters into her own hands, and if clearing her father’s name requires a miracle, then a miracle is what she will deliver. #paperback#thriller#fiction#nativeamerican
