Shoot out at the Wash-O-Mat December 22, 2004 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
A Shoot out at the Shiprock Wash-O-Mat leads to a puzzle that only Jim Chee with his knowledge of the Ghostway and of death rituals can try to peace together. Related is a disappearance of a school girl (Margaret Sosi) will lead Jim from the New Mexico landscape to the Los Angeles area. There with Hillerman's gift for description we also get a contrasting look of the different worlds. Will He find the girl and what does the puzzle spell out, or will it ever become clear? This is a close continuation of "People of Darkness" so many of the descriptions and people were previously defined in that book. The reason people read Hillerman is mostly for the descriptions of the places and people his characters encounter. As seen in previous books, in the description of Margaret and other characters, he incorporates his real life experience with World War II and its aftermath.
A Hillerman Classic June 19, 1998 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I have been a huge fan of Tony Hillerman's work and find his writing refreshing and inventive. The Ghostway was an insightful look into the funereal ways and myths of the Navajo. It was not only a murder mystery but a look into the mind of a troubled soul searching for the right way to live. A good read! You won't be able to put it down until the end!
