Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Old vendettas and native American superstitions abound in Navajo country.
Ms Gentry introduces us to a cast of characters, some honorable, but most greedy and evil, who are caught up in a spiraling series of bizarre murders. The murders, eleven in all, if I counted correctly, are so diabolical and gruesome that many in Lukachwhai believe the old powers of the Skin Walkers, the evil spirits who inflict supernatural punishment on the living, are at work again.
The complicated plot follows through to a sad but logical ending. If you enjoy native American lore and legend, then this book will surely please.
Ms Gentry is a meticulous storyteller with a lyrical and enjoyable style.

Navajo deputy Sam Featherock is a rational man, but he cannot explain what he has seen. A wake of shattered bodies has left a bloody trail across the reservation within a week. The numbers of gruesome murders are accelerating at frightening speed. Is something supernatural involved or does someone want him to believe that to throw him off the trail? Tribal whispers say a Hopi witch is to blame¡ªa Skinwalker, who roams the night and causes havoc and death, but Featherock believes he stalks a more inhuman foe, an ancient spirit that has broken into our world to exact vengeance for past crimes. Native legend and myth have become frighteningly real. Everything Featherock knows and loves is in danger from a mysterious entity with the most evil of intentions. Nothing will stop Featherock from solving the mystery, but during the lonely dark of night, he learns there is only one truth. You can never sleep until you know what walks the land behind you.
