A man lunges in front of a car. An elderly woman silently drowns herself. A corpse sits up in its coffin and speaks. On this reservation, not all is what it seems, in this new spine-chilling mythological horror from the author of Sisters of the Lost Nation. All Noemi Broussard wanted was a fresh start. With a new boyfriend who actually treats her right and a plan to move from the reservation she grew up on--just like her beloved Uncle Louie before her--things are finally looking up for Noemi. Until the news of her boyfriend's apparent suicide brings her world crumbling down. But the facts about Roddy's death just don't add up, and Noemi isn't the only one who suspects that something menacing might be lurking within their tribal lands. After over a decade away, Uncle Louie has returned to the reservation, bringing with him a past full of secrets, horror, and what might be the key to determining Roddy's true cause of death. Together, Noemi and Louie set out to find answers...but as they get closer to the truth, Noemi begins to wonder whether it might be best for some secrets to remain buried.… (more)

Lackluster. Less confusing timeline wise than Medina’s previous book, but very slow and the opposite of gripping.

I am not really a fan of horror, so that aspect of the book did not excite me. There was a lot of mysticism and supernatural elements as well.
I did think the author did a good job of dealing with grief, alcoholism, family issues, and other issues that affect the Native American community living on a reservation. I also did enjoy the mystery aspect of the story. ( )

Myths and legends get real.
Perplexing strange events from the past return with something a lot different from reality. This is one scary book but not of the slasher, vampire, or shoot-em-all variety. Love the characters and the writing style!
I requested and received a temporary EARC from Berkley Publishing Group/Berkley via NetGalley. Thank you.
