HumanMade Top 105 Best Suspense, Thriller, and Mysteries of All TimeOn a sunny afternoon in sleepy southeastern Idaho, a bread truck carrying three million dollars in cash receipts from West Yellowstone is robbed on a lonely pine shrouded highway.

Hokee Wolf is a trained Native American shaman, and by using his … American shaman, and by using his unusual skills became Idaho’s most successful private investigator. He was hired to find the thief or thieves and return the money. A glamorous New York Television reporter named Glory, temporarily exiled for her safety, joins Hokee in his investigation.

Loved this book
I did not enjoy this book at all, in fact I didn’t finish it, that is how little it held my interest. I found the plot contrived and the dialog stilted and unrealistic. If you are expecting something along the lines of Tony Hillerman, just buy Tony Hillerman, you will be happier.
interesting
Loved the character and found it a good read
hokey says it all
Unrealistic characters but entertaining nonetheless
Just couldn’t identify with the characters.
Easy read and entertaining.
Liked this book. Especially the main character. Pleasant reading.
I learned an enormous amount from Hokee Wolf about the Native Peoples culture: sweat lodge purpose, historical traditions, spiritual beliefs. Really enjoyed it though the plot was predictable in some aspects but certainly not all.
Too much of a romance novel and not enough action.
I did not read even half of this book. Just wasn’t of interest.
This is a good reading experience.
Although not based in reality it is a pleasant side trip into a wouldn’t it be really neat if… Highly recommended entertainment.
I LIKED THIS BOOK DIFFERENT AND GOOD, A PLEASING READ.
It was okay, but I live where it supposedly takes place, and I didn’t even recognize my own home. His descriptions of the area, are a little inventive.
Enjoyed this book. Some of the connections seemed a little unlikely, but it was still entertaining and the story line was interesting.
Interesting but pretty far fetched
Not like Tony Hillerman’s books at all like the review I read.
The interaction between the characters was natural and not at all forced. Enjoyed it!
