<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Ella Clah has sworn to protect her people from all menaces--spiritual or physical. When a series of events causes upheaval in her Navajo community, Ella uses modern police techniques to fight the witches she suspects are responsible.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b> Not even Navajo witches can stop Ella Clah in Aimee and David Thurlo's <i>Bad Medicine, </i>the third book in this beloved series </b> <p/>When the daughter of Senator Yellowhair is killed in a suspicious car accident, the Senator accuses Ella and the tribe's medical examiner, Dr. Carolyn Roanhorse, of falsifying the autopsy results. An outbreak of meningitis leads to more trouble when many of those who are vaccinated against the illness begin dying from a different, unidentified disease. Riots between Indian and white workers at the Navajo-owned mine stretch the resources of the tribal police even thinner. <p/>Convinced that solving one mystery means solving them all, Ella plunges into her investigations despite threats from all sides and her suspicions that Navajo witches are somehow involved. Ella Clah has sworn to protect her people from all menaces--spiritual or physical--and she's not going to back off now.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Fans of Tony Hillerman will enjoy this thriller.
