Navajo wind – I wanted to read this since I’ve been to this part of the world and even stood in the very spot of Four Corners for ..well five minutes as it turned out. Still, I’d not read a thriller set here before!
Fascinating from the point of view of the setting – that’s what attracted me to this book unsurprisingly as it delves into many areas surrounding the Navajo Apache reserve which covers much of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado.
It’s not the most exciting novel in that the chase and the kidnaps are nothing too out of the ordinary, but the context of the political, police and social history of the place interested me a lot. I would definitely want to read what ever the author writes next and I hope this is the start of a very unique series.
New Mexico traditions and landscape, Apache culture and more play a huge role in this thriller and I’d love to see more in future. Shadow Wolves too. I’m quite taken with it all.
That Navajo wind blows a chilly breeze into the thriller landscape despite the heat!
