The wailing wind / Tony Hillerman.

Hillerman, Tony, (author.).

Summary:

To Officer Bernie Manuelito, the man curled on the truck seat was just another drunk--which got Bernie in trouble for mishandling a murder scene--which got Sgt. Jim Chee in trouble with the FBI--which drew ex-Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn out of retirement into an old crime he longed to forget. Legends of the area's lost gold mines join the mountains and canyons of the Navajo Reservation as an important part of Hillerman's plot, but his tale turns on an obsessive love and memories of a missing woman's voice wailing in the darkness. An evocative novel by a master at the top of his form.
