Sonoran Slots, the sprawling new casino operated by the Tohono O'odham Nation of southern Arizona, has just opened its doors at the edge of the San Xavier District of the Reservation. Less than a week after the Grand Opening ceremonies, a bomb threat sends a throng of eager gamblers scurrying to the exits. What appears to be a prank takes a lethal turn when an elderly man dies after being rushed to the hospital while suffering a heart attack during the evacuation. Linda Bluenight, past forensic anthropologist and present fourth grade teacher of Tohono O'odham children, has just commenced her fall semester at San Xavier Mission School. Her hopes for a quiet school year are soon dashed when her teenaged son, Matty, insists on taking a part-time job at the increasingly chaotic Sonoran Slots. In High Stakes at San Xavier, third novel in the Linda Bluenight Series, Linda and her new love interest, Tucson Police Department's Lt. Jake Zepeda, follow an increasingly complicated trail involving Native American shamans, retired Armenian mafia members, shady land speculators, and Congressmen with questionable motives before arriving at a surprising conclusion.

When Linda Bluenight's teenage son, Matty, stumbles across a corpse while hiking in Ventana Canyon, her past experience in forensic anthropology catches up with her. The short-handed Tucson PD asks for her help with the autopsy, and her findings lead her to believe the Tohono O'odham boy arrested for the crime is not guilty. As she investigates a lengthy list of suspects, Linda and her son both become targets for an unknown adversary bent on scaring her off the scent and back to the day job she loves - teaching children at the San Xavier del Bac Mission school. But Linda and Matty are not so easily put off, and when Linda begins to get close to the truth, she finds herself in more danger than she anticipated.
