Scalped 4

Fifteen years ago, Dashiell "Dash" Bad Horse ran away from a life of poverty and hopelessness on the Prairie Rose Indian Reservation in search of something better. Now he's come back home armed with nothing but a set of nunchucks, a hell-bent-for-leather attitude and one dark secret. He finds nothing much has changed on "the rez"--short of a glimmering new casino run by a corrupt leader named Red Crow, and a once-proud people overcome by drugs and organized crime.

But now, Chief Red Crow's most trusted are finding themselves in difficult positions. His right-hand man gets embroiled in a murder mystery, while his mentor challenges him for tribal leadership. A heart-wrenching Vietnam War flashback introduces Wade--Dash's infamous father--who scandalously returns to the rez. Dash faces his immense inner demons as he enters a pursuit of his mother's killer.
