Don’t Think Twice

Description

Deep in the north woods of Minnesota| Paul Two Persons is struggling to keep his resort lodge afloat. He has lent money to his childhood friend| Al| and needs it back fast before the bank forecloses on his business.
When Al turns up missing — and then dead of an apparent suicide — Paul is propelled into a labyrinth of intrigue that leads to some ugly discoveries. There is corruption within his own Tribal Council| developers’ plans for the land that Paul has fought so hard to keep| and the “accidental death” of his eight-year-old son that now seems something more sinister.
Haunted by these demons| growing increasingly distant from his grieving wife| and facing the very real threat of losing his livelihood| Paul feels he has become what the Chippewa call a “tchibai” — a walking shadow. Attempts are made on his life| the lodge is nearly burned to the ground| and people on the reservation behave oddly in his presence.
The escalating circumstances of one summer — and Paul’s determination to survive them — reveal the indomitable spirit that is his Chippewa heritage. Set in the breathtaking landscape of northwestern Minnesota| “Don’t Think Twice” is a haunting and memorable story about a man’s struggle when pushed to the edge.
