Stolen Butterfly
Gabriel Hawke, Novel Number Seven
Missing or murdered
When the local authorities tell State Trooper Gabriel Hawke’s mother to wait 72 hours before reporting a missing Umatilla woman, she calls her son and rallies members of the community to search.
Hawke arrives at the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Reservation and learns the single mother of a boy his mom watches would never leave her son. Angered over how the local officials respond to his investigating, Hawke teams up with a security guard at the Indian casino and an FBI agent. Following the leads, they discover the woman was targeted by a human trafficking ring at the Spotted Pony Casino.
Hawke, Dela Alvaro, and FBI Special Agent Quinn Pierce join forces to bring the woman home and close down the trafficking operation before someone else goes missing.

The ancient Indian art of tracking is his greatest strength...and also his biggest weakness. Fish and wildlife state trooper Gabriel Hawke believes he’s chasing poachers. However, he comes upon a wildlife biologist standing over a body that is wearing a wolf-tracking collar. He uses master tracker skills taught to him by his Nez Perce grandfather to follow clues on the mountain. Paper trails and the whisper of rumors in the rural community where he works draws Hawke to a conclusion that he finds bitter.

Cody Hoyt, while a brilliant cop, is an alcoholic struggling with two months of sobriety when his mentor and AA sponsor Hank Winters is found burned to death in a remote mountain cabin. At first it looks like the suicide of a man who's fallen off the wagon, but Cody knows Hank better than that. Sober for fourteen years, Hank took pride in his hard-won sobriety and never hesitated to drop whatever he was doing to talk Cody off a ledge. When Cody takes a closer look at the scene of his friend's death, it becomes apparent that foul play is at hand.

Well done
This is an excellent mystery that is too close to the bone (as it were). The publisher's blurb tells a bit, but skirts the issues of insensitive law enforcement (the bad cops of any stripe). The story brings the reality out into the light, and touches on the problems of domestic violence before heading right into the serious issues of human trafficking. It also clearly delineates the difference between cops who are there for the paycheck and those who are wholly into The Job. It is a painful and meaningful tale that reminds me why I prefer fiction to certain aspects of reality. It's also worth noting the importance of the solidarity of tribal family as clearly highlighted in the story.
There is a great campaign in Canada by The First Nations (including Two First Nations women have launched a class action against Ottawa alleging widespread systemic racism in various federal Indigenous agencies and departments. (9-14-2021), in the US there is the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women's movement, the DOJ for the Not Invisible Act, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Blue Campaign against human trafficking. I do not apologize for the rant.
Larry Gorman is great as narrator with his laid back interpretation that only seems to emphasize points being made by the author.
