His descriptions of the landscape make you feel like you are there. I highly recommend this book.  iayork | Aug 9, 2009 |  A good story featuring Joe Leaphorn as the leading character. hailelib | Jul 4, 2009 | First book in the Jim Chee & Joe Leaphorn southwestern mystery series. There are 16 books in the series, all of which are well worth reading but the earlier ones (1978 through 1993) are the most interesting. I have read them all and re-read many of them again. (  ) BRCTEX | Feb 8, 2009 | In this novel Leaphorn is beginning to be a more prominent and fleshed out character. Before he was almost the impersonal observer but in this novel he is the hero. The mystery is more complex as well - plus there is new territory to be explored, and Captain Largo is introduced. Good read. ( ) tjsjohanna | May 23, 2008 | Complex murder plot on Navaho reservation. Cleverly organized; quiet, thoughtful Leaphorn ( ) tzelman | Feb 18, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0061000299, Mass Market Paperback)The state police and FBI are baffled when an old man and a teenage girl are brutally murdered. The blind Navajo Listening Woman speaks of ghosts and of witches. But Lieutenant Leaphorn of the Navajo Tribal Police knows his people as well as he knows cold-blooded killers. His incredible investigation carries him from a dead man's secret to a kidnap scheme, to a conspiracy that stretches back more than one hundred years. Leaphorn arrives at the threshold of a solution—and is greeted with the most violent confrontation of his career.
