A historical fiction that imagines a world where the Mound People of the Midwest weren’t wiped out by disease and held onto their land into the 1920s when they are part of the U.S. Written as a noir detective story, we follow a half native/black policeman who is gilding through life without being part of either community. The book hits all the noir beats extremely well while using the mystery to reveal amazing worldbuilding and resistance to colonialism.
