Hillerman always has a surprise, a twist in the story that keeps you in suspense. I like the history, issues, customs of the Native Americans that weave in and out of the story and which makes each book so atypical of "regular" mysteries.

A very good plot and has a lot of mysterious happenings. If you like Hillerman's books, this is a must because it's one of the best my husband and I have read so far.
