When a classic Super Chief locomotive disappears between L.A. and Chicago and the case is handed to the BIA's John Tall Wolf, he asks the obvious question, "How do you steal a train?"
Once more, John is working with FBI Deputy Director Byron DeWitt, and the question he wants answered is a perennial favorite. "Are terrorists behind all this?"
Other possible suspects are Native Americans and two feuding Silicon Valley tech billionaires who were among the last people to see the Super Chief off from L.A.'s Union Station.
All trails lead to the one place John swore he'd never go: the reservation where he was born. Looks like a good place to avoid, too, when John learns his grandmother has put out a hit on him.
