    Seamlessly blending classic horror and a dramatic narrative with sharp social commentary,*The Only Good Indians*follows four American Indian men after a disturbing event from their youth puts them in a desperate struggle for their lives. Tracked by an entity bent on revenge, these childhood friends are helpless as the culture and traditions they left behind catch up to them in a violent, vengeful way.

    This is the third installment of the excellent Peculiar Crimes Unit series of mysteries. Highly recommended.

    Next up one of many classics I’ve somehow managed to miss until now:

    "Amy Stewart uses her skills as a researcher to lovingly excavate the wonderful, entirely forgotten story of the Kopp sisters, who briefly dominated East Coast newspaper headlines a century ago...Constance, Norma, and Fleurette live on a New Jersey farm, scraping by without too much difficulty until a road accident entangles them with a crooked silk manufacturer, who begins to harass them – possibly with the help of the Black Hand gang. It’s Constance’s doughty response that gives the book its title, and also its delightful verve...[Stewart's] created several memorable characters here, in particular Constance, who, enterprising and independent but with a closely guarded sorrow in her past, seems like an American answer to Maisie Dobbs."— USA Today

    To be clear, this is a historical novel. While based on actual events, the author uses the tools of fiction to fill in the many blanks and to bring these characters to life.

    I'm quite enjoying it.
