Haloke is coming home. Eight long years in the Middle East have honed her skills in defending those she cares for. Now the four men who brutally hurt her younger sister Johona are going to be taught a sharp-edged lesson in the power of karma. That is, if Deputy Logan Cartright doesn't get to them first.

Haloke was finally home. Home to her beloved Wyoming. Home with her younger sister, Johona, who had already endured so much. And it was Christmas. Haloke knew exactly the kind of Christmas present she wanted to give to her dear sister. Haloke's Vision is book three in the Arapaho Vision Quest series. In general, Lisa's novellas are written without explicit intimacy or violence. As such they are suitable for teens and up. That being said, this specific series does center around one young woman's recovery from rape.

A Wyoming blizzard. A crashed car. Haloke's only six years old, but there's no one else. Her father's dead. Her mother's clinging to life. She draws deep within her, to her Arapaho and Navajo roots, and sets out to find help. Twenty years later, it's Haloke's younger half-sister, Johona, who desperately needs help. She'd been knocked unconscious and then brutally raped. Johona steadfastly clings to the belief Deputy Logan can find those who are responsible. Maybe - just maybe - her sister would be able to return home from deployment overseas to spend Christmas with the family.
