The unsolved murder of a farm family haunts the small, white, off-reservation town of Pluto, North Dakota. The vengeance exacted for this crime and the subsequent distortions of truth transform the lives of Ojibwe living on the nearby reservation and shape the passions of both communities for the next generation.
In 1911, a family is killed in North Dakota and three Ojibwe are lynched for the murders, with no evidence of their guilt. Years later, the events affect the descendants of those involved. The plot contains profanity and sexually explicit situations.

Really amazing writing. The story jumps around in time, which I usually find to be a style I don't like. But in this book, it is interesting and creates a feeling of putting together a puzzle which you finally solve at the end.
