Murder on the Red River by Marcie R. Rendon

5.0

Fargo, pool, drinking, and murder. I love how the author incorporated the 1970s, rez history, and CPS in this story. Cash is tough as nails. I learned a lot about how, for 115 years, Native American kids that were taken by CPS just wound up in white homes. How those kids who have lost so much couldn't stay with family. Kids who became wards of the state and moved from foster home to foster home were met with silence or violence, and that's how they handled problems. During this time, siblings didn't stay together when being taken, and it's heartbreaking. Cash obviously has some issues about her dad, mom, and her two siblings. She's only 19, and Wheaton is the closest person she has to a family member. He is not a talkative guy. And i wanna know more about Long Braids and his relationship with Cash. I don't like that she is sleeping with a married white man and knows it. But maybe he goes away cause I don't like him. Great read!
