Matt Roush says...
The acclaimed crime drama based on Tony Hillerman’s novels returns for a compelling fourth season, with Navajo Tribal Police Lt. Joe Leaphorn (Zahn McClarnon) and Sgt. Jim Chee (Kiowa Gordon) searching for Navajo teen Billie (Isabel DeRoy-Olson), who ran away from her oppressive boarding school in the company of a shady relative. Their investigation is complicated by the lurking presence of a lethal hitwoman (Run Lola Run‘s Franka Potente) as the bloody trail leads off the reservation to 1970s Los Angeles. Back at the precinct, Joe is contemplating retirement while Bernadette Manuelito (Jessica Matten) considers returning to the squad after her harrowing adventures with Border Patrol last season.
