NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"Spider Woman's Daughter is an intricately plotted, suspenseful,
colorful, and unforgettable journey. Readers will fall in love with
Bernie Manuelito and look forward to Anne Hillerman's next effort in
what should be a long, enjoyable, successful series. Her depiction of
the Navajo Nation is spot on. I loved this book." -- Jo-Ann Mapson,
author of award-winning Solomon's Oak and Finding Casey
Legendary tribal sleuths Leaphorn and Chee are back! The supremely
talented daughter of New York Times bestselling author Tony Hillerman
continues his popular series.
It happened in an instant. After a breakfast with colleagues, Navajo
Nation Police Officer Bernadette Manuelito sees a sedan careen into the
parking lot and hears a crack of gunfire. When the dust clears, someone
very close to her is lying on the asphalt in a pool of blood. With the
victim in the hospital fighting for his life, every person in the squad
and the local FBI office are hell-bent on catching the gunman. Bernie,
too, wants in on the investigation, especially when her husband,
Sergeant Jim Chee, is put in charge of finding the shooter.
Bernie and Chee discover that a cold case involving Chee's former boss
and partner, retired lieutenant Joe Leaphorn, may hold the key to the
shooting. Digging into the old investigation with fresh eyes and new
urgency, husband and wife find themselves inching closer to the truth
with every clue . . . and closer to a killer who will do anything to
prevent justice from taking its course.
