"Langley (Death Waits in The Dark) lures readers into the continuing adventures of indigenous private detective Arthur Nakai in the third of his Arthur Nakai Mysteries series, again combining mystery storytelling with resonant social issues. Langley delves thoughtfully into the tragic issue of how missing indigenous women are often ignored by authorities as well as the ways in which indigenous people in America face survival in a culture attempting to erase them. A subplot involving another missing indigenous woman underscores the variety of circumstances that can lead to these crimes. Langley never loses sight of the humanity of his protagonists, ensuring that this sometimes-brutal story’s sensationalist elements never overshadow its moments of inspiration. Crime mystery fans will enjoy piecing together the puzzle, but the tragic details of indigenous women going missing give it power. Detective fans will enjoy this thriller that powerfully depicts the crisis of abducted indigenous women. Fans of Louise Erdrich’s The Round House, Dana Stabenow’s A Cold Day for Murder will love this book."
