Hi,

 

My Mom is looking for a Mystert series that takes place solely on an Indian Reservation  The person who solves it is the Shaman of a tribe.  The author's name starts with an M, *pretty sure but not 100%)  but not sure of anything else.  If someone has an idea,  can you please help me?

 

Thank You

Maybe Margaret Coel's Wind River Reservation series?

or

Marilyn Meredith's Tempe Crabtree books?

Tony Hillerman has written an extensive series that takes place on the Navajo reservation. On the way to the conclusion of each book, you'll pick up a lot of fascinating material about the Navajos and their culture.

Thanks Everyone for the Help.  That link actually led us to the answer, It was Mardi Oakley Medawar, and the main character was Tay-Bodal.

 

Thanks again for the help.
