Reviews

[Lila · Rating 2 out of 5]

Very slow burn suspense novel focused on two young academics looking to rekindle their marriage by taking a road trip through the southwest. Descriptions of Native American culture is dated and will seem off to some readers. Trope of a woman with unrealized psychic power and ties to a shadowy underworld. For fans of the author who are completists.
