"Cash and Sheriff Wheaton make for a strange partnership. He pulled her from her mother's wrecked car when she was three and has kept an eye out for her ever since. Cash navigated through a succession of white foster homes, and at thirteen was working on farms. She's tough as nails and makes her living driving trucks. It's a rough place to live -- Fargo-Moorhead in the early 1970s. Wheaton wants her to take hold of her life, stop fooling around with married men and the American Indian Movement, and attend junior college. So there they are, staring at the dead Indian lying in the field. Soon Cash was dreaming about the dead man's cheap house on the Red Lake Reservation, mother and kids waiting. She has that kind of power."-- Provided by publisher.
