"From the Comanche Tribal Housing of Madischie in southwestern Oklahoma comes a crew of young Comanche, Arapaho, and Kiowa toughs hell-bent on gaining power within a subculture of organized crime. Led by a Comanche named Velroy, they find themselves caught in a century-long transformation from the old Comanche Nation to a modern-day casino-owning tribe. Hoawah relays their story with a distinctive narrative flair, honed syntax, wild imagery, and a sash of lyricism."--Page 4 of cover.
