This book was way too short.  I had hopes for the main character in the first two books I read despite Louis, the main character being a little too damaged for my taste, but overall the writing is good.  I figured the character would grow and blossom.  The story lines were interesting but could have been really fleshed out and the environment and the native-American issues explored a lot more in the last book.  It was as if the author was having a quickie....on paper.The main character Louis is a bit self centered and whines a lot about his past.  He makes little effort with relationships and then stands around wondering why the "loved ones"in his life disappear in the mist.  I imagine him being a Dwayne Johnson looking character since he's mixed race, but I don't see that kind of man always crying about his past issues.  And poor pitiful Louis is always getting beat up and never seems to be alert enough to weigh the consequences of his actions which has resulted in him being "trapped", injured or just left out in the cold time and time again over the 3 books I have read.In all three books he's just so desperate to "fit in with a PD" that he will do almost anything and put up with almost anything....don't think the character has any back bone.  Either be a PI or be a cop....Stand up and make a real life instead of drifting...without a rudder a boat goes no where.  Without a direction, this character goes no where....
