Title: Not what I expected...
Review: This was my first Hillerman book, but I don't know if I will be trudging my way through another. As a fan of the modern detective/crime genre, I thought it would be great to happen upon another prolific author. Instead, I found myself mired down in the multiple characters introduced in the first 100 pages or so, even going so far as to skip whole passages. My attention just was not grabbed, let alone held. I may try another of his books, as several of the reviews indicate this is not one of the author's best, but I'd recommend John Sandford's "Prey" series or one of Johnathan Kellerman's great Delaware novels long before this one.
Is the review positive or negative?
