This is a very absorbing, well crafted mystery that shows the conflict between the modern world and small town populations as well as the modern Native American conflicts. Very well done, with a light touch on the mysticism.The plot seemed a little thin in some respects (map to a gold deposit?) but the vivid descriptive writing and individualism of the characters were very strong.My only personal issue with this book is the "secret" that is hinted at but not revealed about the main character's prior life. It isn't really a cliffhanger (which I detest) but it is, for me a personal annoyance. If it is germane to the book and the plot, tell it. If it's not, doesn't need to be there. Again, just personal attitude with me, but enough to be an irritant.
