Book Review of The Eagle Catcher (John O'Malley, Bk 1)

The Eagle Catcher (John O'Malley, Bk 1)
sharrona avatar reviewed on + 207 more book reviews


Mystery set on the Arapaho Wind River Reservation. Lead characters Father John O'Malley (Jesuit priest assigned to a mission near the reservation) and Vicky Holden, an Arapaho attorney, continue through the series; their friendship and working relationship is intriguing. The series was highly recommended by Tony Hillerman and Earlene Fowler, which persuaded me to try it. I will soon read a more recent book in the series to see if I like the way the author's writing, characters, and setting have developed. Based on just this first book, I can't strongly recommend it.
