Bo Bradley is a child services advocate with a secret...she has manic-depression and is trying to function effectively without letting her superiors know about her condition. The book is a good read, a decent mystery, and has an illuminating description of manic depression and how it feels to experience it.

Child abuse investigator Bo Bradley knows the rules: never get emotionally involved with the children you help. It's not always easy. Now, with the boy known as Weppo, it is about to prove impossible.

He was found in a shack amid the lone pines and dusty canyons of Southern California. He is four years old, non-Indian, classified retarded, he is deaf. And she knows, after seeing the Paiute mystic who found him, that she must heed her own inner voice; and it whispers danger. Then, an attempt to murder Weppo pushes Bo into action. Risking personal involvement and professional ruin, she vows to unearth the truth...as she desperately sturggles to save Weppo--and herself--from certain death.
