Sacred Clowns Tony Hillerman

Sacred Clowns by Tony Hillerman

SKU: BPB-41225WS07

A schoolteacher is found murdered. A young boy disappears. And a ceremonial koshare clown—a sacred figure in Pueblo tradition—appears at the center of both mysteries.

Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn and Officer Jim Chee are called to investigate, each bringing their unique perspective to the case. As they uncover overlapping layers of cultural significance, religious ceremony, and human motives, they must navigate tribal boundaries, spiritual beliefs, and bureaucratic red tape.

With its rich Southwestern setting and authentic portrayal of Navajo and Pueblo traditions, Sacred Clowns blends classic mystery with indigenous culture and character-driven storytelling.
