Book Overview
A frigid spring morning at a Native American archaeological dig erupts into sudden and brutal violence, leaving five people dead and one man gravely wounded. And in a hospital, with archaeologist Annja Creed at his side, the last survivor utters his final words to name his killer--a skinwalker . The skinwalker is feared among the Navajo and Apache. It is witchcraft of a most terrible nature that allows a man to take the shape of a wolf--and kill. But as Annja delves into the mystery of the skinwalker, she finds herself pulled into an underworld of violence and vicious radicals, threaded with legend...and sociopathic intent. In this world, Annja is unwelcome. And in this world, she could be the creature's next victim....

Good story, but DANG!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
In this the latest adventure of our sword wielding heroine Anja finds herself on an Indian Reservation when terrible things happen and she finds herself pitted against a creature from Native American lore. (And yes, I did just use both terms for my red brothers, if you read the book you'll find out why)The author addresses the conflicts within the Indian Nation between the older tribesmen and the younger ones, what The Nation is trying to make of themselves in this white man's world and what traditional values require. The family Anja accidentally falls into interaction with is key to this story. There is, of course, a lot of fighting in this story not all of it with The Sword and lot of good people die-that seems to be the author's hangup and frankly I could stand to see less of it, the good guys have it hard enough without being used as story fodder. But at least the author kept Anja smart in this story and didn't have her making stupid, rookie mistakes "for the sake of pointless drama". No appearances by Ru or Garin which was sad, could have saved Anja a lot of pain and bruising.
