Medicine Park

Medicine Park is a compelling small-town murder mystery that takes place in southwestern Oklahoma in the historically pivotal year of 1963.

Medicine Park uniquely blends engaging characters, humor, romance, suspense, and Native American tribal culture – with a splash of metaphysics, a dash of the macabre, and an onslaught of surprising twists and turns.
