Snake Song

By blood, bone and history Austin Bullock is now chief of his nation, responsible for maintaining the welfare of his people and the land. By choice he left the reservation years ago to teach high school history, to coach basketball in the white man's school, and to seek an identity apart from his Native American heritage. Now the waters of Lost Man Marsh and the song of the Tie-snake call Austin to return. Someone outside the Nation has sinister plans for the people who live there. Murder, tribal custom, legend, and the modern world collide with violent force, and Austin must make choices he has struggled to avoid.
