If you are a horror fan, The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones will be right up your alley. This one is intense and terrifying, but offers a satisfying and hopeful ending. This is a story about our own personal history and how our choices will sometimes come back to get us. It's about finding our path in life and knowing which direction we should be heading.
The Only Good Indians is the story of four friends who find themselves in hunting grounds that are off limits to them. This part of the reservation is for the elders only, but they head in anyways. When they find a huge herd of elk in their sights, they can't help themselves and open fire, taking down more than they ever could have imagined. But one of the elk was unexpectedly pregnant, clinging to life to protect her calf, to no avail. As the 10 year anniversary of the "Thanksgiving Classic" is approaching, things start getting weird for Lewis. He is driven to madness as the thoughts of that struggling calf come back to him. But Lewis is only the first of his friends that finds the memories of that day haunting them. Soon the others are fighting for their lives as their past comes fighting back in to the present.
