About this listen

Homicide is always an abomination, but there is something exceptionally disturbing about the victim discovered in a high, lonely place: a corpse with a mouth full of sand, abandoned at a crime scene seemingly devoid of tracks or useful clues. Though it goes against his better judgment, Navajo tribal police lieutenant Joe Leaphorn cannot help but suspect the hand of a supernatural killer. There is palpable evil in the air, and Leaphorn's pursuit of a wolf-witch is leading him where even the bravest men fear - on a chilling trail that winds perilously between mysticism and murder.

I read this years ago but didn't remember much about it. on listening to it now, it was a little slow starting but before too long became very suspenseful--definitely recommend.

Excellent !

I am a Hillerman fan. I read them all as they came out. This was my first listen. The narrator was splendid and I highly recommend.

Now I know why these were on my dad's shelf

A fun, engaging, reading. The narrator feels perfect for the harsh beautiful country the story is told in. All in all I am very pleased and looking forwards to the next one.

Grueling

Not what I expected. Guys might enjoy it more than a woman like me. I found it difficult to visualize the situation they were in and the way the protagonist was thinking.

Slow and Steady

The AMC series “Dark Skies “brought me to the series narrator George Guidall just made me want to listen to this book. A little slow but well thought out and I look forward to the next book in Hillman’s series.

Good story and narration

Same narrator as the Archer Mayor Joe Gunther series. Great narrator and great stories buying as many of both series as possible when they go on sale

a mix of cultures and a mystery

I read several Hillerman books many years ago now. Listening to this great reader has brought back the intrancing and evocative quality of these books.

Would give 10 stars if I could!

This story consumed my attention and was an escape to a world I’ve never seen. The characters were so believable and authentic. I enjoyed both the story and the narrator. Can’t wait to read them next book in the series!
