Sky Woman Falling

De: Kirk Mitchell

Narrado por: Dick Hill

FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed, a Modoc Indian from California, and Bureau of Indian Affairs Investigator Emmett Parker, a Comanche from Oklahoma, are a team, sent by the Feds wherever there are problems in tribal territory.

This assignment takes them to upstate New York where Brenda Two Kettles, an elder of the Oneida tribe, was found dead in a cornfield, every major bone in her body shattered. She seems to have fallen from the sky, like Sky Woman of the Oneida creation myth. When Anna and Emmett discover that Brenda was the center of a bitter land dispute between Indians and whites, they are sure she was murdered. Their investigation brings them face to face with the dangers of race war, and soon their own lives depend on Anna's instincts and her ability to see the line where myth and reality come together.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Mitchell combines a great story line with an authentic Native American background in his flawless fourth mystery....Packed with suspense and action, this intricate tale delivers a conclusion that is nothing short of brilliant." (Publishers Weekly)

Enjoyable story.

A very good mystery with enough indian lore and police procedural to keep everyone happy.

loved it!

best one yet of this series. I have read everything by Tony Hillerman and his daughter and I have finally found someone almost as good and better than most. I highly recommend this book.

good book

very interesting story. I liked that the setting of the story was in my own area. nice ending.

Cozy up, this one is GOOD!!

This book has everything you need to make a great read... in this case, listen. The reader was great and loved the way he changed his voice and accents for each character.

Reader made it almost unbearable to continue

Truly awful reader. Narrator voice was fine, but women's voices were offensively awful and any other males almost as bad.
Hard to even describe, but women were represented as speaking like a cross between a whining sarcastic adolescent and a cartoon character. Just horribly distracting and completely out of synch with the character's actual personality. It was a real struggle to finish because of this, but the story strong enough to keep me going despite the cringe-worthy narration.
It borders on criminal to damage a story this way.

Disappointed

Did not seem like the same author. I could not get used to the narrators voice - especially for Anna.

I wanted Emmit and Anna to have more than a few moments together.

Worst Narrator

This narrator ruined the characters they weemed unreal and was so very poorly portrayed. Stephen Rudinicki the original narrator fir first 2 books in series made Emmett and Turnipseed believable characters and an enjoyable listen. The story is good just needed original Narrator.

Great Series

I have really enjoyed this series. I look forward to reading the rest of these

Intriguing

Love the depictions of the areas, the plot was good and the twists unpredictable.The ending was perfect.

very poor choice of narrator

how sad to have such a great story narrated by a poor choice of narrator. the nasal inflection aside, his voice & characterization is awful. such a disappointment given the previous narrator's voice.
