The Plot\u2026 (beware of spoilers)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sheriff Joe Leaphorn (McClarnon) and his deputy Jim Chee (Gordon) are trying to locate a missing Navajo boy.\u00a0 Leaphorn and Chee learn the missing boy witnessed a murder.\u00a0 The killer is on the kid’s trail as well.\u00a0\u00a0Matters are complicated when FBI agent Sylvia Washington shows up to investigate a murder case.\u00a0 Joe Leaphorn is her main suspect.\u00a0 Leaphorn’s marriage begins to fall apart when Special Agent Washington informs Leaphorn’s wife that her husband may be a murderer.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bernadette Manuelito is settling in to her new job as a border patrol cop.\u00a0 Any job is hard when you’re the rookie. Manuelito is put into a tough situation when she discovers that an influential, rich landowner may be involved with drug running.\u00a0 Advised to back off, she digs deeper.\u00a0 Learning that at least one person in her department is on the take, Manuelito doesn’t know who to trust.\u00a0 Her time is running out, since she’s now a target of a former CIA assassin.<\/p>\n

Thoughts\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dark Winds: Season 3<\/em> builds on the actions Joe Leaphorn took in season 2.\u00a0 It’s not often we see the ramifications of a character impacting others.\u00a0 The relationship between Joe and Emma seems real.<\/p>\n

I liked the dual mysteries presented this season.<\/p>\n

Dark Winds<\/em> provides the best creep\/scary villains.\u00a0 Raoul Max Trujillo as Budge Baca continues the tradition.<\/p>\n

Zahn McClarnon, Kiowa Gordon, Jessica Matten and Deanna Allison have real chemistry.\u00a0 I look forward to Season 4.<\/p>\n
