No current Talk conversations about this book. a wife kills for her husband's dream Coel deals with the nuclear waste -vs- the environment issue. The two main characters deal with life in their own ways. Plot is pretty simple, Father John helps investigate a murder and lawyer Vicki dives into the nuclear waste proposal. Lots of jobs for the Arapaho are balanced with hazardous waste...reminiscent of the Navajo uranium miners. Author treats the subject very well...I'll be back for book #4. Father John discovers the body of a man whose face was shot off. It's happening at the same time Vicky Holden is opposing the placement of a nuclear waste facility on the Wind River Reservation. Soon others are found dead in the same manner. The Bureau of Indian Affairs chief, local law enforcement, Father John, and Vicky "team up" once again to solve this case. I listened to the audio book version read by Stephanie Brush. I find this series enjoyable for listening. Father John is a likeable, but slightly flawed, priest. Vicky is more of an activist than I am, but her character seems to fit well into the series. The recurring law enforcement characters are enjoyable as well. A proposed nuclear storage area on the reservation creates much conflict among tribal members. Current murders awaken concerns about a crime from the past,; long thought resolved. Vicky and Father John, struggle with their personal relationship as they pursue the deaths under the shadows cast by the conflicting views engendered by the impending nuclear decision. no reviews | add a review
