Description
Ella Clah has found her place on the Navajo Reservation, in her tribe, her clan, and her family. She has seen the Din at their worst--and at their best--as they balance the modern era with the traditional Navajo way of life.
The Navajo are building a nuclear power plant on the Reservation. Though the tribe voted for the plant, there are those who believe that nuclear power is inherently dangerous--and particularly so for the Navajo, due to past uranium mining operations that contaminated land and water and sickened many Navajo workers and their families. A group of activists is determined to do whatever is necessary to stop the plant--assault, sabotage, domestic terrorism. When a fellow Navajo Police officer is injured in an attack aimed at Ella's boyfriend, Ella vows to do whatever it takes to find the terrorists and bring them to justice.Author: Aimée Thurlo, David Thurlo
