The Night Visitor

Charlie Moon, Aunt Daisy, and Little Sarah star in this addition to the series. James Doss manages to unit the floundering mismatch of Charlie's police friend Scott Parish and journalist, Anne Foster though their problems are irrelevant to the story line. The interweaving of science, myth, theology, culture, and folklore are the fine threads that compose a struggle among the participants of this astutely crafted novel. THE NIGHT VISITOR gives the reader what they've come to expect from this Kentucky born author whose gift of imagery has few equals. Take your time with this one, the results will surprise you.

This was a great read. I love the shaman daisy and her french canadian buddy. They make a story flow.. as do all of the characters created by Mr. Doss.

I always enjoy reading about Charlie Moon and Aunt Daisy. I find the characters believable, and the action suspenseful enough to keep me reading until the last page. Although I know nothing about the Ute tribe and their culture, the books read as authentic information, like Hillerman's Navajo tales. If you enjoy Native mysteries, try Doss on for size.

Jame Doss has outdone himself with this book. The reader is caught up in an intriguing mystery full of colorful characters and spiritulism so well put together that it is difficult to put the book down once it is started and is kept guessing at "whodunit" until the very end of the book.

As reader of Danny Doss's mysteries from the beginning, it is a pleasure to see him progress rapidly in his craft from his first effort. This is a series that will hook you and keep you wanting more.
