Starred Review. The12th Charlie Moon mystery (after 2006's Stone Butterfly) from world-class storyteller Doss has more twists and turns than the road to Charlie's acerbic Aunt Daisy's. The ratings for Colorado's most famous TV psychic, Cassandra Spencer, go through the roof when she describes a truck-stop murder as it takes place, but she fails to predict the horrific death of her newly wed eldest sister, Astrid, apparently mauled by a wild animal. Rancher Charlie Moon, a Ute tribal investigator, and his best friend, Granite Creek police chief Scott Parris, team up with Aunt Daisy and her connections in the spirit world to search for an inhumane—and possibly inhuman—killer, while Cassandra and her remaining sister, Beatrice, vie for the hand of Astrid's widower, who has secrets of his own. Doss's narrative and chatty asides are finely cut gems. This latest Colorado mystery leaves no doubt that Doss has carved out his own niche. (Nov.)

From Booklist
This is the twelfth Charlie Moon mystery and one of the best (it features some of the most entertaining characters). Investigating a murder is never an easy thing, but when a local woman is killed, and her two sisters (one of them a prominent television psychic) show up in Granite Creek demanding swift justice, Charlie soon realizes this case has "problem" written all over it. But Charlie has been a tribal investigator for a long time, and he knows how to roll with the punches. Even though the sisters are definitely a handful, Charlie never loses his cool. As usual, he's ably assisted by his friend, police chief Scott Parris, and by his aunt Daisy, a Ute shaman whose connections with the spirit world often come in handy. Although both writers combine mystery and Native American mythology in their novels, Doss is long past the time when he needs to be compared to Tony Hillerman. Doss is a powerful force in his own right and deserves equal recognition. Pitt, David
