This is a FANTASTIC debut that left me shocked, disgusted, and intrigued. I knew I would like this book based on the initial premise, and it didn't disappoint. If you want a slow burn mystery, this is the book for you. I learned a lot about Native American history and the turmoil/hurt these groups of people have endured over hundreds of years. The audiobook was also fantastic, as the narrator displayed emotion without being overly dramatic. Overall, a solid read and I'll definitely be on the lookout for future works by this author.

This was a page-turner. The characters were interesting as was life on the Rez. Much was heartbreaking.

DID NOT FINISH: 8%

Not a permanent DNF, I just thought I was in the mood for a crime thriller and it turns out I’m not. Will likely give it another go down the line!

Wow! What a pleasant surprise. This is one book that truly deserved all the praise. Looking forward to our upcoming discussion during our readers group meeting.

This was a really good book. I especially enjoyed the peek into Native culture.

I was really enjoying it up until the last couple of chapters. Then the ending is too pat.
