Yeiitsoh Omen — James E. Aarons

Katie returns to her native reservation as a new veterinarian where evil spirits, both Ute and Navajo are on a tirade to push her back out. Temporarily defeated she joins Rory at his veterinary practice in California where he shows her the beauty of the paradise he has discovered. He reopens an old veterinary clinic to entice her to settle in with him. Katie cannot shake the call to return to learning; sure she can help her people if only she knew more. But she is falling deeply in love with Rory and must find a balance between her desires and his future wishes. Rory proposes to her hoping the promise of marriage will plug the gap she feels.
