Prologue

Prologue

Lissa Yellow Bird started searching for missing people after an oil worker disappeared from the reservation Lissa’s from. Since then, many Native American families have asked for Lissa’s help looking for their loved ones, too. Sierra Crane Murdoch tells Ira about Lissa’s exceptional investigation work—and the hardest case Lissa’s ever worked on. (6 minutes)

Sierra's book about Lissa is called, "Yellow Bird: Oil, Murder, and a Woman's Search for Justice in Indian Country."
