Sing Her Down lived up to its advertisement as a modern-day, feminist western. The characters were all morally-gray (even Lobos, the detective) and the plot was captivating. Many critiques of this book are about its slow start. I agree that it is a title that takes a few chapters to get into, but once you’re in, it’s hard to put down.
