I found this young-adult book fascinating.  This author has some of the characters from her first book in this second book, but it can be read independently.  I knew nothing about Native American reparations of their ancestors and objects from museums and colleges before this story.  The added mystery of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) made this story one that kept my interest from the beginning until the end.  I wish there were books like this when I was in high school.

i LOVED firekeeper’s daughter so i had v high hopes for this one and i was not disappointed. perry is an incredibly lovable mc, the relationships she has are so fleshed out, and the plot is just enough to keep you on edge. i do think it took a little longer to get started on the action, but the set up is important and still engaging. can’t wait to go back and reread the first one and then probably this one again to pick up on all the connections. so so so good
