The Madwoman of El Malpais: A Mysterious New Mexican Adventure

The story focuses on a nine-year-old visionary, Kahlo, and her archeo-astronomical speculations in New Mexico's Chaco Canyon. There is no written history of ancient Chaco residents, yet Kahlo sees things others don't. Her mother, Aurore, is trying to solve her sister Ashleigh's death that may have been a murder. A retired Navajo Uranium Miner and former Santa Fe Railroad employee, a Zuni former Rhodes Scholar and now Park Ranger, a half Navajo/half Welsh former Viet Nam vet who lives in the desert hills south of Chaco, and a a sports writer from New York, all are seeking adventure, treasure, or rewarding experience in the mystic New Mexican outback. There are seven narrators, including Kahlo's grandmother, each of whom casts a different perspective on high-desert adventure and discovery.
