Narrator was superb

Good story but so much description that it was a very slow slog to the end.

Settling Old Scores

With Father John O’Malley just back from his sabbatical and Arapaho lawyer Vicky Holden, working in partnership with Adam Lone Eagle, it looks as though the two will not resume their old friendship. That is until Kiki Wallowingbull is found dead, from what authorities are calling a drug overdose. Kiki's grandfather swears that the young Arapaho was clean and starting over. Father O'Malley isn't so sure. Then Vicky starts getting frightening phone calls from a killer. She tries to ignore them, only to end up in danger, and in a major tiff with her boyfriend and partner, Adam Lone Eagle. But Vicky is her own person, not the young and naïve girl she had been when she had married a man who turned out to abuse her. And it isn't long until both she and Father John O'Malley are looking into the death of Kiki Wallowingbull. The history of the first silent western, The Covered Wagon and the treatment of the Indians who worked for the movie industry is very interesting . . . and heartbreaking. Excellent story and an ending well worth the wait.

Great story.

Another great Vicki Holden mystery. Interesting plot with lots of twistsand turns. Very enjoyable listening.

Another fantastic adventure with Vicki Holden & Father O'Malley

This was a wonderful read. I couldn't put it down. The historical weaved into today. I not only read a great mystery but learned of the Indian Nation's experience in early Hollywood

Another Winner.

Another all nighter. I simply couldn't put the book down until I had finished it.

Another Okay book by Coel. It drags somewhat in the middle as many things are repeated over and over as our heroes meet different folks. Also, "you ask me" is used consistently; while it may be reservation lingo, it's probably not popular in 1923. The use of flashbacks to 1923 was often confusing and not well divided. The Vicky and John characters have the same old, same old tension builders going on---boring, trite and used---book 15 is just like book 1 and it gets older and older. I had to drag myself through this book.

Absolutely dysfunctional

Never buy an audible book because you’ll never hear it. Completely dysfunctional platform. You can press the play button. Well that doesn’t work.
