Publisher Description

Margaret Coel's spellbinding Wind River mysteries have long celebrated the spirit of the American West. When Kiki Wallowingbull is found dead on the reservation, all signs point to a drug deal gone wrong. Arapaho lawyer Vicky Holden and Jesuit priest Father John O'Malley begin an investigation into the murder, but soon find themselves spiraling toward a deadly world of drugs and deceit.

"This is one of the very few series I can recommend to anyone without hesitation. This book is less intense than earlier books in the series, but pleasantly so. The Father John/Vicky relationship is more settled, although I do still wish that the Vicky character had some shred of a sense of humor. (The relationship between John and Walks On remains the most unflappable and dependable.) The time frame shifts comfortably between the 1920s and the present; the plot twist revelations at the end work well."

Quotes

  • “Skillfully weaves the story of the murders of two men of the same family—one in the 1920s, the other in the present—into a complicated mystery of rites, rituals, tradition, and family.”

    " Still annoys me when Vicky goes haring off into danger. At least she realizes that's what she's doing, so I don't have to scream at her while reading. The connection to film history is interesting and well done. Won't hesitate to read the next one. "

    " This was pretty good. I do like the relationship between Vicky Holden and Fr. John but it is tense because he is a Catholic priest and she a divorced Arapaho Indian lawyer. He has been away as this book begins and it takes a while for them to get together after his return to the mission. There is one thing missing from his story, though: I never see him in prayer. "
