Talking God (Leaphorn & Chee Series, Book #9) by Tony Hillerman
Reunited by a grave robber and a corpse, Navajo Tribal Police Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn tries to determine the identity of a murder victim, while Officer Jim Chee arrests Smithsonian conservator Henry Highhawk for ransacking the bones of a grave in a New England cemetery to protest the museum's collection of Native American skeletons.
But with each peeled-back layer, it becomes shockingly clear that these two cases are mysteriously connected -- and that others are pursuing Highhawk, with lethal intentions. The search for answers to this deadly puzzle pulls Leaphorn and Chee into the perilous arena of superstition, ancient ceremony, and living gods.
