Caleb Drake has just been released from prison after serving his sentence for aggravated assault against his girlfriend, who has been disabled ever since. He has always claimed to be innocent and hopes to rebuild his life in his hometown. However, some people do not want him to return. They would rather see him live on a reserve - because Caleb is Native American - or see him return to prison. Moreover, he seems to be accumulating blunders since his release: fights, threats, etc. Chloé, a journalist for the school newspaper, believes he is innocent, but how to prove it? And if he is not the real culprit, then who is it? This detective novel bases its plot on a miscarriage of justice marked by prejudice against Native Americans.
