Raised by the Sheepeater Indians of the Salmon River country. Erik Larson fulfills part of his boyhood vision and becomes Two Elks Fighting. After finding his sister, Katrine, and the other Swedes, he realizes that he no longer belongs in their world or in the Sheepeaters' world, and he leaves the valley. A second vision reveals evil and confuses Erik, but Erik's spirit helper tells him it was not meant for him, and he falls in love and marries Bright Shell, a Lemhi Shoshoni woman. Erik believes he has found peace by living between the two worlds as a trapper with his wife in the Lost River Range until evil strikes. This engaging novel chronicles the history of the Clearwater and Salmon River areas of Central Idaho, the Lemhi Shoshoni, the gold strikes, the Chinese merchants, and the packers who supply the camps. A constant threat are the road agents who prey on unsuspecting parties like Erik. Dorris weaves numerous historical events into the fictional lives of Erik and the Swedish settlers in Long Valley.

But when her parents and older brother are separated from the main wagon train, Katrine suddenly becomes an orphan. The Swedish families want nothing more than to create new lives in America.

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From USA TODAY bestselling author Stephen Graham Jones comes a “masterpiece” (Locus Magazine) of a novel about revenge, cultural identity, and the cost of breaking from tradition. Labeled “one of 2020’s buzziest horror novels” (Entertainment Weekly), this is a remarkable horror story that “will give you nightmares—the good kind of course” (BuzzFeed). Seamlessly blending classic horror and a dramatic narrative with sharp social commentary, The Only Good Indians is “a masterpiece. Intimate, devastating, brutal, terrifying, warm, and heartbreaking in the best way” (Paul Tremblay, author of A Head Full of Ghosts). This novel follows four American Indian men after a disturbing event from their youth puts them in a desperate struggle for their lives. Tracked by an entity bent on revenge, these childhood friends are helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in violent, vengeful ways.
