From Publishers Weekly

Tribal Police Lt. Joe Leaphorn and Officer Jim Chee investigate the murder of a fellow Navajo policeman.
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc. This text refers to an alternate Mass Market Paperback edition.

Product Description

The car fire didn't kill Navajo Tribal Policeman Delbert Nez—a bullet did. And the old man in possession of the murder weapon is a whiskey-soaked shaman named Ashie Pinto. Officer Jim Chee is devastated by the slaying of his good friend Del, and confounded by the prime suspect's refusal to utter a single word of confession or denial.

Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn believes there is much more to this outrage than what appears on the surface, as he and Jim Chee set out to unravel a complex weave of greed and death that involves a historical find and a lost fortune. But the hungry and mythical trickster Coyote is waiting, as always, in the shadows to add a strange and deadly new twist.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Coyote Waits, Avril 1 2004
This review is from: Coyote Waits Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
I enjoyed reading the book Coyote Waits, by Tony Hillerman. This book got me into it right from the beginning.This book has suspense, mystery, action, and a little bit of history. Coyote Waits starts out a little boring, but gets to the story pretty fast within the end of the first chapter. This book had good vocabulary and some foreshawdoing. Over all i enjoyed reading this book and i give it four stars.

(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Coyote Waits Mm (Mass Market Paperback)
As a reader whose interest is in the literature of the American West, rather than mystery writing, I had to be encouraged to read Tony Hillerman. And it was a happy discovery when I read "Coyote Waits." With his cast of Navajo characters, including law officers Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee, the author introduces readers to the world of the modern-day reservation and the surviving Navajo culture in the Four Corners area of New Mexico and Arizona.

The coyote of the title, from Navajo mythology, represents a darker side of human psychology, as it is understood by these Native Americans. It stands for the unexplainable destructive forces that disrupt all efforts to achieve the ideals of peace and harmony. Hillerman's understanding of Navajo customs and values, the legacy of white domination, and the complexities of law enforcement on the reservation makes the chapters of his book read like a fascinating social history.

You can also read this book with a road atlas open beside you. Hillerman places the story in a real world of highways, dirt tracks, natural landmarks, and small reservation towns, with side trips to Albuquerque. The descriptions of landscapes and the play of sunlight are vivid, and there is frequent reference to the changing autumn weather. I recommend this book to anyone with an interest in well-drawn characters, the American West, and Native American culture and life.

5.0étoiles sur 5 "They teach us that everything has two forms.", Déc 13 2003
Par bernie "xyzzy" (Arlington, Texas) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Coyote Waits (Hardcover)
Jim Chee sits drinking coffee while partner Tribal Policeman Delbert Nez meets his demise. Chee catches the obvious perpetrator. A Navaho shaman, with a bottle in one hand and THE gun in his belt. Case closed.

Because of his guilt at not backing up his partner and at the insistence of Chee's on again and off again relationship with the defending attorney, Janet Pete, Chee must find out for him self what happened and if he may have made a mistake.
Because of a relationship through is dead wife with Ashie Pinto's (the defendant) clan and also being pushed by Dr. Bourbonette (anthropologist), who insists that Ashie is being railroaded, Joe Leaphorn but also investigate from a different angle. He is constantly thinking about what his dead wife Emma would say in the situation.

Both men are pushed into what looks like an endless amount of overlapping mysteries of which the murder of Delbert Nez is just one. They - and we - must deal with the history of the CIA and that of witches.
