Summary

If there's one thing that Bureau of Indian Affairs Investigator Emmett Quanah Parker knows, it's that the dead don't always stay dead.

When the corpse of a woman, brutally murdered and bizarrely mutilated, is discovered on Havasupai Nation land, Parker is paired with FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed in a hastily assembled task force of two. The two share a mixed Native American ancestry - and little else. As they are pulled deeper into a complex case, Parker suspects they are being led, like Custer to a Little Bighorn, into a killer's trap.

Critic reviews

"Nail-bitingly intense....A breathless page-turner...with memorable Native American myths and an outdoorsman's respect for the Southwest's brutal beauty." ( Kirkus Reviews)
"Plenty of strenuous treks through rugged terrain....What a great guy to keep around." ( New York Times Book Review)

A slow burn.

It took a little while to warm up and shine off the details about the Indian tribes didn't sink in at all but it turned in to a decent story, the narrator had a bit of a slow drawl but i thought it was in keeping with the character and was not bad i quickly got used to it. i will definately listen to book 2.

A great audiobook

I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook. Great characters and atmosphere. A taut plot with formidable foes and a tenacious investigator.

Intriguing

This was a really interesting story and I learned a lot about Native Americans, proving that I knew absolutely nothing about the people and their traditions. I liked the main characters and absolutely loved the narrator. He made the whole thing come to life. I’m looking forward to the next in the series.

Fascinating

Wow! apart from falling for the narrator's voice....the story is beautifully crafted, and I really was riveted from start to finish. Off to listen to the next one!

A good beginning

Whilst probably over egging the awesomeness of the lead character I think this is a good start to a series which I will be continuing

Very intriguing

The plot was revealed in a slow and intriguing guile. The characters were many but the focus around the main characters was well developed. Really enjoyed it

Great story well told

Not for the “skim listener” more for the engrossed listener this is a different take on the usual murder whodunnit. Well worth engaging your attention.

Good Story

I didn't know what to expect when I started this, but it is a good slow burning detective novel and a freebie, the story was good and kept me interested.
