In Stephen Graham Jones's standalone novel, "The Bird is Gone," the American government enacts a conservation act that restores the Great Plains to indigenous control. Fourteen years later, in a bowling alley within the Indian Territories, a diverse group of characters, including LP Deal and Cat Stand, seek a treaty hidden in a stolen pipe. This treaty, signed under duress by General Sherman, could potentially return all of the Americas to indigenous peoples. The key to the locker containing the pipe has been flushed down a toilet, prompting the characters to consider what they are willing to sacrifice to retrieve it.
