Father John may be reassigned, Father's John's niece visits to research Arapaho history and falls in love with local, Vicky researches for child adoption after original lawyer is murdered while also trying to keep alcoholic client out of prison Blue eyes and fair hair among the Arapahoes; how it happened is the historical basis for this fine addition to this excellent series. Why was the lawyer who specisalized in adoptions run down, deliberately, before he and Vicky can confer? Father John's niece adds a present day harmonic to the mystery from the past as she examines life on the Wind River. I love the way Margaret Coel mixes the past and the present in her Wind River series. In this case, a 100+-year-old mystery of a young white girl captured and raised by Arapahos is connected to Vicky's latest case. In Vicky's case a white baby girl was left on the doorstep of an Arapaho couple. The girl is 5 years old now, and the family is trying to adopt her. But Vicky is finding a whole series of secrets, lies, past crimes and new bodies along the way while she takes on this case. With the help of Father John O'Malley, they unravel the tangled past and determine what happened with little Mary Anne Little Shields. How did this infant wind up on the doorstep in the Wind River reservaton on a blizzardy cold night? Vicky and Father John are in top form in this latest addition to one of my favourite series. This was an excellent edition to this series. I have not read many in this series but I will read more because of this one. I really liked Vicky and the story was fantastic. This book flowed real well and I did not want to put the book down. There are some twists that really make the story even better. I received an ebook copy of this book from Firsttoread for a fair and honest opinion. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
