More than four out of five indigenous women report they have been victims of violence. For decades, indigenous women have faced a murder rate higher than the national average. It is part of the spectrum of violence experienced by Native women.
This fictional collection of novellas delves into these types of missing and murder cases. It shows what obstacles exist for tribal law enforcement and the extent to which families will go, like using social media to track their missing person cases. That's because the utter lack of coordination between law enforcement agencies is failing to help the missing and murdered, as well as their survivors. This is the tale of tribal Detective Sergeant Jessica (Medicine) Stone and her oftentimes partner, FBI Special Agent Casey Borgreve.
