Manifest West

Manifest West by Kenneth D. Jackson. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781936127061.

In this contemporary tale of Southwestern suspense Dr. Michael Ganson makes a daring decision to save one life at the risk of sacrificing another. He is thrown into a medical malpractice nightmare with strings being pulled by powerful people who have an agenda to take him down. While mounting his defense and fighting his own demons, Ganson finds work as a doctor on the Fort Apache Indian Reservation, a land of fallen warriors and a still proud heritage that has problems of its own with the outside world. The disappearance of an Anglo boy and his link to Bronco Dazen, a once revered medicine man, has made national news. Did Dazen a man marginalized by his own people feel compelled to commit murder? Seeming opposites Dr. Ganson, a man of traditional medical science, and Bronco Dazen, a medicine man with a history of using snakes and lightning to treat his patients both appear to have blood on their hands. The journey to discover their guilt or innocence takes the reader deep into the heart and soul of the Apache people in this contemporary tale of passion, mystery and redemption in the American Southwest.
