Ni'il : Waking Turtle

Police Chief Dan Connor and Stephanie return in the third volume of "The Ni'il Trilogy." They have now defeated the monster ni'ilaquo twice, but they know it will no longer underestimate their strength. As they prepare for the next battle they recieve a cryptic warning: "Wokani tsi." They quickly learn that it means "the turtle awakes," and that it's bad, but little else. As they explore the local Natives' lore looking for answers, Dan's political enemies start to move against them and they begin to realize that ni'ilaquo is the least of their problems. The stakes have never been so high. For if they fail now, everything, lterally, could cease to exist.
