A friend suggested reading Mark Reps, a native of my own state of Minnesota, and gifted me a copy of Native Blood. I was leery as I had tried reading mystery books several times through the years and the genre hasn’t done a thing for me. Out of curtesy, I decided to read this book and was blown over. Exceptional writing is exceptional writing. Mystery just might be my favorite genre after reading an extraordinary book by Mark Reps. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

The ritual killing of a young Apache girl on a reservation in rural Arizona takes the listener through many complex layers of relationships between Apache and Anglo cultures. The myth and spiritual fabric of the Apache community pulls Zeb Hanks, a small town sheriff, through a personal journey, making the murder not just a crime to solve but a cathartic passage. The dead never leave us but they do whisper ghost stories that bring the past back to life. Jake Dablo is a drunken, washed up lawman because of his inability to solve the murder of his only granddaughter. Seven years after her death the granddaughter of his lifelong friend, Medicine Man Jimmy Song Bird, is murdered in exactly the same ritualistic fashion. The pair join forces with the current sheriff's team to solve the murders. The closer to the truth they get the more each man grapples with his own conscience. Ultimately the intersection of two cultures and four men who are community pillars opens larger questions about the collision of the old and new west. When the dead are buried and the ghosts finally die, each character is not the same. For they have lived each day of their life knowing that a murderer and his mark opens as many doors as it closes.

For me too much mysticism not enough police investigation. ( )
