Sacred Ground

A Novel

De: Mercedes Lackey

Narrado por: Katie Anvil Rich

From the New York Times bestselling author Mercedes Lackey comes contemporary fantasy Sacred Ground.

Jennifer Talldeer is Osage and Cherokee, granddaughter of a powerful Medicine Man. She walks a difficult path: contrary to tribal custom, she is learning a warrior's magics. A freelance private investigator, Jennifer tracks down stolen Native American artifacts.

The construction of a new shopping mall uncovers fragments of human bone, revealing possible desecration of an ancient burial ground. Meanwhile, the sabotage of construction equipment at the site implicates many activists—particularly Jennifer's old flame, who is more attractive and dangerous than ever. Worst of all, the grave of Jennifer's legendary Medicine Man ancestor has been destroyed, his tools of power scattered, and a great evil freed to walk the land.

Jennifer must make peace with the many factions and solve the mystery of her ancestor's grave before the world falls into oblivion.

A New, and yet old, story

Utilizing the best of the traditional stories of Cherokee and Osage, the author weaves a mystical tale, that traditional police work can only shrug and shake their heads.

Good story.

Story starts slow, but improves to keep your interest. All together I thought it was a very good story.

Loved this story

I have read other Mercedes Lackey books and enjoyed them. This book is no exception. I loved the story, the characters and the world building. My only quibble was that this book wasn't the first in a long series, which I would have enjoyed.

The believability is profound!

I loved being taken into a world where faith is manifest through Native American beliefs.

Intriguing plot, vivid characters

I got this because the author had worked with Anne McCaffrey. I was not disappointed. Looking forward to the next volume I listen to.
