Book Overview

Dreams tell old man Paul T'Sosi he's dying. So why is Navajo trickster, Magpie, trying to tell him a far more terrifying secret? Hungry for revenge, Ma'iitsoh Dine', the Navajo Wolf, is out for blood. Summoning his darkest powers, the Witch of Ganado circles tribal investigator Charlie Yazzie's young son. Some may survive the witch's evil vendetta, but others will die to settle an old score. The unexpected happens when a woman from the past re-emerges to take control in this fast paced thriller critics now hail as the best yet of Chappell's sensational new southwestern mystery series. Critics describe R. Allen Chappell's writing as "embedded and close to the ground" with an intuitive knowledge of the Navajo people and their land. Magpie Speaks, number 5 in the series, cements Chappell's legacy and puts him in the forefront of modern day Navajo Mystery storytellers.

Writer, poet, R. Allen Chappell's work has appeared in magazines, literary and poetry publications, and has been featured on public radio and television. The author and his wife spend most winters on a small sailboat in Mexico and summers at home in Colorado, where he pursues a lifelong interest in southwestern archaeology/anthropology. Dedicated horsemen and blue-water sailors, the couple are equally at home packing into the back country or sailing offshore. Much of the inspiration for his work comes from a life lived at the edge of the great reservation. The novel - NAVAJO AUTUMN - is available as a paperback on Amazon, or Kindle download, and is the precursor to his Navajo Nation mystery series. Second in the series - BOY MADE OF DAWN - is now out as both a paperback and on Kindle. His short story collection - Fat of The Land - is on Amazon in paperback and on kindle.
