Big Chief by Jon Hickey

3.5

---

3.5 This is a well-written literary fiction with a lot of insight into different layers of relationships and how those carve paths and choices. I was attracted to the novel because the main character seems to be a morally grey lawyer who fixes political outcomes but also the relevance of casinos in the degradation, power, and greed of people's lives. It took a turn that I wasn't expecting to make it a (new genre to me, kind of read) an interesting fiction read with a lot of relatable moments.
