Buffalo Dreams David Clemens

The Arbuckle Mountain pass in southern Oklahoma is treacherous any time of the year, but a winter ice storm turns the scenic highway into a death trap for Evelyn Maloney, Teah's mother. Her sudden death leaves Teah filled with anxiety as her fear of falling increases. Letters from her mother speak of shamanism and reveal the true meaning of her name. Teah's confusion mounts as she stands in her mother's private attic sanctuary. And the twenty-eight blue bound journals where the unknown past of her mother's life is yet to be revealed only feed her growing inner tension. Overwhelmed with the feeling of falling, her anxiety is made worse with nightmares and dreams of a buffalo a grandfather with long silver braids, and a re-headed man with brilliant blue eyes. Evil is afoot and it is up to Teah to banish the evil from her life. The man in her dreams continues to haunt her. Who is he? What's with the fox, buffalo, salmon and crow invading her dreams? Will her mother's love and her written journals answer the questions Teah desperately needs?
