Arches Enemy by Scott Graham

shirleytupperfreeman's review against another edition

Picked this up at a local bookstore as we were heading to the Utah national parks. It was okay - I wanted to finish it to find out 'who done it' and I learned some things about the park and the original occupants of the area. But the story was a bit preachy about current and historical conflicts between preservation folks, native folks, political folks, industry folks etc.

Another park, another mystery. Arches Enemy by Scott Graham is the last book I had to read to be up to date about Chuck Bender and his family before book 8 is out later this year. This time we get to know a lot about Chucks background and about his mother. The mystery is somewhat dim but still a good story. Once again we never really get to know if he finishes his job and the result of his study in the park. I would like more information about the different parks. Still it was a few hours spent travelling from my reading chair and that is always good.

Aside from the adult content, it's written like it's intended for a young adult audience. Full of information and ideas, simplistically written -- However, the author still managed to surprise me with the whodunit. And then it abruptly ended with no resolution; intentional, but not very satisfying.

Good book to read on the heels of visiting Arches Park in Utah. I learned some related history and overall enjoyed the book.
