The Big Picture Based on the hit series of mystery novels by Tony Hillerman and his daughter Anne Hillerman, AMC's Dark Winds is a hard-boiled thriller set on the Navajo Nation in the 1970s. Following Tribal Police Lt. Joe Leaphorn and Officer Jim Chee , the series dives into a murder mystery that is tied to a local bank robbery.
But things get especially tricky for our heroes when Leaphorn and his allies find the helicopter used in the robbery is the late Hosteen Tso's, well before his grandson, James Tso , arrives on the Rez pretending to be his Catholic priest brother, Benjamin. The charade works for a while until Leaphorn and Chee discover that James wears glasses while Benjamin doesn't.
Rather than let Guy take the fall, Chee convinces Bernadette to help him hide Whitover's body back in the case that James had been hiding out in, a deception they keep even from Leaphorn. When they blow the cave up, they consider the evidence covered. It's not until months later that Chee learns that Nakai had survived his wounds and made out with the money.
But before the climactic finale, Sally gives Leaphorn Frank Nakai's name following James's surprise visit. With this information, Leaphorn is able to make the impossible connections between James and Nakai, helping him to put the whole buffalo-sized picture together. Having lost a child of their own, Joe and Emma decide to take in Sally, who no longer has any safe family to help her through her teen pregnancy and into her future.
