Don't know that she is as good as author as is her father but still an enjoyable book. No generally my genre of book to read but always interested in Native American art and culture, so those aspects I found interesting.

This isn't a "Leaphorn and Chee" novel, but a "Mauelito and Chee" novel. "Manuelito" is Bernadette Manuelito, and she is Jim Chee's wife, both are members of the Navajo Police.
I wasn't sure Anne Hillerman could continue her father's success with these characters, and, with this---her first novel---I'm still not convinced. About halfway through the book I had a good idea who the criminal was.
Still, the novel is a good one and for those of us who enjoyed reading about Leaphorn, Chee, Manuelito and other members of the Navajo Police, it was good to "see" them back in action.
