William Kent Krueger tells the stories of contemporary Native Americans and their conflicts with neighboring white townspeople to save their sacred forests from the local logging industry. Purgatory Ridge is set in northern Minnesota at Iron Lake near the Ojibwe reservation. The interaction of Natives with Anglos reminds me of Hillerman's stories; in fact, I just learned Krueger was greatly influenced by Hillerman.
