Overview

Ted De Grazia's inspired mythological representation of HA-AK, the witch gathering children, from the Legend of the Blue Owl, is one of his most famous paintings. Equally inspired, the novel Blue Owl blends art theft, fraud, archaeological and ecological vandalism and murder with the fascination with Indian rock art and mythology. The mystery unravels amidst the enchanting background of the Arizona desert and the ambiance of Scottsdale, Abwatukee, and Tempe. By subtly weaving the Legend of HA-AK, Parrish has created an intriguing modern mystery tale sprinkled with magic and romance.

This book weaves a tight tale of suspense and intrigue that moves along a parallel track with a regrettably nonfiction lament about suburban sprawl into the desert Southwest.
