Dark Winds is set in the 1970s in the American Southwest, which is located on the Navajo Nation. Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn of the Navajo Tribal Police investigates a series of seemingly unrelated crimes. A band of robbers in a helicopter robs an armored truck, killing two guards, in Gallup, New Mexico, and the helicopter crashes during the robbery on the reservation. Hosteen Tso, an older man, witnessed this. He is found dead in a motel room with Anna Atcitty.
Jim Chee, a covert FBI agent who was seeded into the town to investigate the radical Buffalo Society group. As he digs deeper, Leaphorn uncovers ties between the truck robbery, the murders, the land grabs around a mine, and his own troubled past.
