During a raging spring blizzard, a tavern owner along the Mississippi River uncovers a body in a snowdrift in his parking lot. Things become complicated when the murder weapon, an ancient Native American war club, is discovered lying next to the body. Lt. Jim Higgins of the La Crosse Sheriff's Department and his team delve into the murder and uncover ties to a past Sauk hero named Blackhawk. In addition, protests by local environmental groups in the area who oppose an energy company's plans to construct huge high lines through the bucolic scenery create more mayhem. Murder, history, and passionate political stances make this book a rollicking good read.
