She is asked to look into recovering tribal artifacts from a Denver museum. Centered around a missing Arapaho ledger book, and a history student, this mystery illuminates search for power, money interests and culture. The plot is fascinating and well-mapped. The characters are well developed and believable. Most of the book is set in Colorado...off the Wind River reservation. I'll willingly go to book #5 in the series. ( ) Jesuits, Native American. I like it. I didn't quite engage, though, until I realized it was a analogy of a spiritual journey. Part of the problem was I just didn't really believe in the story. John Irving has one of his characters, a writer, ask "Did you believe my story?" and when someone says no, he asks "Where did you stop believing? At what point in the story?" I watch now for my own belief, where it begins and ends, and this one, oddly enough, began late. I like this series with Father John O'Malley and Vicky Holden. She is asked to look into recovering tribal artifacts from a Denver museum. An elderly story teller recalls seeing an extremely valuable ledger written by a warrior present at Sand Creek at the museum in 1920 but the museum denies it ever existed. Holder with the help of Father John uncover a plot to steal the ledger and the death of 3 young native americans. including a young man who was working on this thesis and hoped to develop a museum on the reservation. He is the one may have discovered the existence of the ledger, but he is killed before he can talk to anyone about it. Artifacts are being returned by museums to tribes via a government act, but an inventory missing the ledger is what drew attorney Vicky Holden to Denver where the murder occurred. Father John O'Malley is on the campus of Regis University in Denver to try to secure funding for a museum. Meanwhile a graduate student from the Wind River Reservation is murdered and his death seems to be linked to his thesis.Father John and Vicky assist investigators in finding the perpetrators, but the way they reach their conclusions holds the reader's interest. I listened to the audio book read by Stephanie Brush who does a good job with this series. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
