In general, I do not love action/adventure stories where one implausible exciting thing piles on top of the next. Drugs! Murder! Violence! Running wildly through the woods! Etc! I just find it unrealistic enough that I lose the plot. No one's life is like that.
But the parts I liked outweigh the implausible parts, so, yeah, a good rating!

"DNA tests can tell you what tribe you're from?"
"Shhh." Fingers to lips again.
He turns to me. Awfully close. I move a step away and keep talking in a low voice.
"You're thinking of those bullshit ancestry tests where you mail your spit in a test tube and they say you're eighteen percent Native American. Those tests are imperfect. They generalize results to geographic regions, not countries or tribes or bands. People take those tests and think they can enroll in a tribe. It doesn't work like that." (Pg. 198)

"Love means wanting you to have a good life, even if I'm not in it. And your love for me? It should be that strong, so you want that for me, too." (pg. 477)
