Wow this was surprising in many ways! A mix of crime fiction, indigenous culture, and sociopolitical loopholes in the justice system that we do not learn about in school. The beginning seemed corny at first, like it was a script for a crime show, but the plot gets deeper and the groove of the writing is refreshing and easy to follow. For a crime fiction this was not too heavy, but not too light. The ending suggests that this could evolve into a series, which I would definitely read!
