“In Blood Relay, Choctaw detective Perry Antelope investigates a carefully engineered crime that quickly ripples far beyond a single disappearance. With prose that’s both precise and unflinching, Devon Mihesuah delivers a harrowing and deeply necessary crime novel.”—Cynthia Pelayo, Bram Stoker Award–winning author of Children of Chicago “Indian Relay Races might be the most exciting thing happening in NDN country. Add in a case of #mmiw, and the reader is taken on a wild ride as Detective Perry Antelope partners with Sophia Burns to find Dels, a female Indian horse relay rider who has disappeared. Blood Relay is an action-packed novel for contemporary times featuring thrilling heroines.”—Marcie Rendon, author of Where They Last Saw Her “[Devon Mihesuah’s] depiction of Native life is full of distinctive personalities who will hold readers’ attention, and her visceral fight scenes have a grittier, more lived-in edge than those in the average cop novel. . . . A satisfying, deeply felt, and uncomfortably relevant crime story.”—Publishers Weekly
