Book Description:
Old Joseph Joe sees it all, Two strangers spill blood at the Shiprock Wash-O-Mat. One dies. The other drives off into the dry lands of the Big Reservation, but not before he shows the old Navajo a photo of the man he seeks. This is enough to send Tribal Policeman Jim Chee after a killer . . . and on an odyssey of murder and revenge that moves from an Indian hogan and its trapped ghost, to the dark underbelly of L.A., to a healing ceremony whose cure could be death.

Linda V. from SAN GABRIEL, CA wrote on 4/26/2007...a great book by tony hillerman you'll enjoy reading. any fan of chee and leaphorn must read.
If you read Hillerman before you will enjoy this book.
Deb M. from BREMERTON, WA wrote on 2/9/2007...Fascinated by the southwest native culture...as seen through the eyes and heart of Officer Jim Chee. The conflicts it brings between his native customs and "the law".
this guy is the premier western writer of our times....once you read one you will search out more of his works.....dynamite
My husband told me this was the best Hillerman he had read so far. We have several more to be read then will post them. This was a real mystery and toward the end keeps you guessing. I just finished it last night so wanted to post it right away. You'll enjoy it from page one.
Mary J. (Another great mystery from Hillerman starring tribal detective Jim Chee
Tribal policeman Jim Chee hunts for a killer from the Navajo reservation all the way to Las Angeles and back while trying to find a young girl who does not realize she is in danger from the same man. This book involves hired killers, mafia, and the witness protection program, which is why I feel it is not one of Hillerman's better works. This is the seventh of the Chee/Leaphorn books, featuring only Chee. Chee is not only a policeman but studying to learn the healing arts of his people before they are lost forever. There is a significant amount of Navajo lore in this one.
