review 1: I have read most of this authors' books. I enjoy the police and tribal interaction as a crime is committed and many different characters interact to find the truth and solve the crime. This is part of s series- I enjoy following a group of characters "grow up"- kind of like a family.This one rockets off with a shooting at the airport of well known Navajo tribal members. As the tribal police attempt to sort out the crime, more and more leads branch off. It is like a never ending snake. Who was the target of the attack? Why were they atacked? Is it related to the casino, the tumble weed oil project or an angry family member who was convicted of a crime?At 384 pages, it kept me entertained and engaged in the story.
review 2: Ella Clah is returning home from a... more trip to Washington where she was looking at a new job offer. Traveling with her ex husband and a war hero they are met at the small airport by a pair of gunman. Ella is slightly wounded and the other 3 more seriously wounded. In trying to find the shooters Ella and the rest of the force along with FBI agent Blalock have to contend with the investigation of the local Casino management that is under investigation as well as the battle between a local family and the tribe over tribal lands that would be the site of a proposed growing area for tumbleweed to be used for bio fuel. There is also the continuing friction between Traditionalists and moderns. Ella is also dealing with her daughter Dawn who wants to spend time with her father and with the offer of the Washington job offer. Its another good mystery in the mode of Hillerman's books with a large dose of Navajo culture mixed in. less
