Starts a bit slowly but develops well into a terrific cast of detailed colorful characters and mystery which is a winding as a back country road but holds ones attention to see what transpires next. Not a one afternoon read but a enjoyable one for a few afternoons during the winter of reading.
This is a wonderful mystery by an author who recently passed away. It is full of suspense, wit and humor, and many interesting tidbits about the Ute tribe. I needed to buy the whole series so I could read them again and enjoy all of James Doss's books several times. He and Tony Hillerman were master writers of mysteries set in the Southwest. Doss's main character, Charley Moon, moves and grows throughout the series. His aunt, Daisy Perika, is a shaman and quite a character. She lends humor and a mystical insight into the old Ute beliefs. It is best to read them in order, but definitely read them you must!
Horror and Mystery abound in this "can,t put it down" book. Scary but spell-binding
