John Tall Wolf is a great character -- he's smart, principled (in his own way), and knows how to work the angles.  His backstory is wonderful and unique.  The Native American tone of the story rings true (not just a hook, as is now happening too often), and the underlying theme is always there (not at Mr. Flynn's convenience).  Note: yes I do have an issue with misuse of a cultureJohn's BIA supervisor, who could be his ultimate nemesis, is not a main character in this book.  She doesn't need to be to grab and hold attention.  I want to know more, and hope we get her backstory eventually.This is a who-done-it within a mystery-- layers are peeled back as one reads.  Murder, theft, betrayal, and all the other fun elements of the genre are included, and done very well.  Tall Man is actually a book I wish was longer, which means that this is a series I will follow (smart author!).
