Review:
In the 1970s, Navajo Tribal Police chief Joe Leaphorn investigates a brutal double murder which may be linked to witchcraft. He has a new deputy, Jim Chee, who is an FBI plant investigating a bank robbery years earlier which may be linked to Leaphorn and the nation. Squanders its early interest by not developing much character and killing off mysteries with anti-climax.

Content notes (may contain spoilers): violence, racism
