Includes People of Darkness and The Dark Wind The Ghostway is a good deep thinking mystery novel. The characters are all believable. The settings are well described. The situations that the characters are in are plausible. The Indian way is well described and easy to imagine. The Ghostway is a good book and deserves the four stars that have been awarded to it in this review. After a man is shot at the Shiprock Wash-O-Mat, Tribal Policeman Jim Chee sets off on a search that moves from a death hogan to the seedy underbelly of Los Angeles and through to a Ghost Way ceremony for one (or more...) of the story's characters. As usual, Hillerman's stories are filled with interesting details about Navajo life and culture, although this one widens the scope to include the FBI and their secret going-on as well. The personal issue that Chee is dealing with (stay with Mary and leave the Reservation or leave Mary and stay in close contact with his culture) is described in a realistic ways with the pros and cons of both decisions taking turns at winning in Chee's mind. This is a series I've read before and I am very happy that I still like it as much as I did the first time around. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Mystery.
An old man's hazy memory and a Polaroid snapshot are all Chee has to go on, but they are enough to send him deep into an underworld of murder and revenge when a shootout erupts between two strangers at the Shiprock Wash-O-Mat. One man dies and the other drives off, but not before showing old Joseph Joe a photograph of the man he is looking for. It's not much of a lead for Sergeant Chee, but it's enough to put him on the killer's trail. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
