4 out of 5 stars Another hit for Mitchell   July 9, 2007

Emmett Parker is a Comanche BIA investigator who normally works out of the Arizona office. But as a Special and unique investigator, Emmett is called upon to solve all kinds of crimes.

However, his last adventure cause him physical harm so he has come home to Okalahoma to recuperate and heal, and possibly decide if he still wants to be in this line of work.

Before we can even determine if Emmett is settling into his mother's home for some much needed R&R, he is accused of killing his best friend, being involved in an elaborate scheme to skim money from the trust funds of the Native Americans, and is being hunted by an adversary who has known him all his life. Michael Mangas is an FBI agent out to get Emmett, maybe, just because. He is not sure Emmett is guilty, but it sure is looking that way. Only with cunning and ingenuity and a little help from his friends can Emmett avoid getting killed or captured.

This is a fast-pace book with lots of action and twists. We are not sure who are the bad guys, and who are the good guys. All we know for certain is that Emmett is not guilty and someone else is. Proving it is another kettle of fish altogether.

When an investigator is on the wrong side of the law, he has to be very careful and suspect everyone, including the ones who claim to be helping him.

The ending is true Mitchell, lots of action and fireworks to conclude the storyline, but also, enough hints to leave us waiting for the next installment of Emmett Parker and his exciting life.



5 out of 5 stars Dance of the Thunder Dogs   May 12, 2007
I thouroughly enjoyed this book. Events unfolded at a good pace and there was not alot of the emotional torture that Parker went through with Tumbleweed in previous books. That can get a little tiresome.


5 out of 5 stars Mitchell's best yet   March 27, 2007

Emmet home to recover or retire? Think again.
While it is hard to grasp that immediate suspicion should fall on such a respected law enforcement officer, the intrigues make this a page turner like no other. Parker on his own, on home turf that has become unfamiliar to him through his long absence, adds great cultural background, works very well, and makes this probably Mitchell's best book so far.
However it would be nice to see Anna back in the future somehow...



5 out of 5 stars Mitchell does it again   May 16, 2006
If you're a fan of Indian Country whodunits, Kirk Mitchell is tops. I could go on, but I'd just be repeating myself. This is a terrific read.


4 out of 5 stars Sorely disappointed   March 22, 2006
  3 out of 5 found this review helpful

The human side of the book, which was most germane to all of the preceding books, was mostly lacking in this story. The tale was told exclusively from an indian viewpoint except from the nuiance of Comanche sexuality. His previously books weave several layers of the indian viewpoint regarding sex, and this book ignores it except in a superficial way.

It also was somewhat difficult to see Parker go from being a presidential decorated "hero" to a fugitive to be "shot on sight" in only a few pages. It seems that there were a few too many miracle escapes.

The ending was not the most believable and seemed to end the story a little too rapidly.

I'm looking forward to the next one, hopefully with the return of Turnipseed.
