This was such a powerful and compelling story that reflects the lived reality of many indigenous people. I was drawn into the story right away with the beautifully descriptive writing and the tension and mystery created.  Though I was stressed throughout, and questioned the choices of the main character, I couldn't put it down. This is my first book from this author, and I will definitely be reading more. Thank you to NetGalley and Ballantine Books for this arc.
