About Dance of the Returned:

The disappearance of a young Choctaw leads Detective Monique Blue Hawk to investigate a little-known ceremonial dance. As she traces the steps of the missing man, she discovers that the seemingly innocuous Renewal Dance is not what it appears to be. After Monique embarks on a journey that she never thought possible, she learns that the past and future can converge to offer endless possibilities for the present. She must also accept her own destiny of violence and peacekeeping.

Devon A. Mihesuah is an enrolled citizen of the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, is the Cora Lee Beers Price Professor in the Humanities Program at the University of Kansas. A historian by training, Mihesuah is former editor of the American Indian Quarterly and the author or editor of over a dozen awardwinning books on Indigenous history and current issues, as well as novels, including The Hatak WitchesNed Christie; and Choctaw Crime and Punishment.
