Kickapoo Passage

By D. Champfleur

Kickapoo Passage, Book Five of The Lighthorse Mystery Series by D. Champfleur:

Kickapoo Passage is a riveting cross-border mystery that plunges readers into the shadowy corridors of tribal sovereignty, cartel finance, and forensic justice. When Captain Jack Hawkins and Officer Betty Overton of the Chickasaw Lighthorse Police uncover a trail of tribal grant money fueling narcotics trafficking through Kickapoo territory, they embark on a perilous journey from Oklahoma to the Texas borderlands.

What begins as a forensic audit morphs into a high-stakes pursuit of truth across sovereign lines, where treaties are both shield and snare. From the neon-lit booths of Parrilla de San Miguel to the dusty roads of Eagle Pass, Hawk and Overton navigate a maze of legal ambiguity, cultural resilience, and political pressure. With tribal attorneys, field officers, and reluctant informants as allies, they confront a system where jurisdiction is weaponized and history bleeds into the present.

As the river rises and the corridors of power blur, Kickapoo Passage asks: What happens when sovereignty is exploited-and who will stand to defend it?
