Song of the Lion, Hillerman - B

                      Bernie Manuelito is at Shiprock HS for an important basketball game when she hears an explosion outside. One is dead. The car that the bomb was in is owned by a famous Navajo lawyer who is the mediator for the important matter of a possible tribal/outside developer project on the rim of the Grand Canyon. Emotions are running high and Jim Chee is assigned to protect the mediator throughout the public hearing process. What is the connection between the mediator, the dead man, and an attempt to injure the mediator's son. These are the challenges the police face. Manuelito solicits help from retired Lt. Leaphorn. I fear that the author cannot touch her late Dad.
