Its actually 3 separate books, featuring Jim Chee: "People of Darkness," "The Dark Wind," and "The Ghostway." I've just started the last one. Very cozy, sitting in front of the woodstove, with a cup of coffee, as the tempertures drop and we're getting snow flurries.

As an aside, the, "Dark Winds," tv series will continue, despite losing exec producer, Robert Redford. It is excellent.
