Spirit Sickness

De: Kirk Mitchell

Narrado por: Stefan Rudnicki

In the tradition of Tony Hillerman and Joseph Wambaugh comes this suspense thriller reuniting Bureau of Indian Affairs Criminal Investigator Emmett Quanah Parker and FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed, two Native American cops torn between their heritage and the law.

A fire-gutted police cruiser found in a remote part of the Navajo reservation bears witness to a horrific crime. Inside are the bodies of a tribal patrolman and his wife. As BIA Investigator Emmett Parker and FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed know, a cop's murder is never simple, raising countless questions and suspicions. When another murder is discovered, the case explodes into an otherworldly realm.

Both Parker, a Comanche, and Turnipseed, a Modoc, are well acquainted with the eerie shadow land between native myth and modern homicide investigation. Now they will have to touch minds with a murderer who has woven personal madness with Navajo myth to create his own reality - and with it the need to kill and kill again.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"In his second suspense novel featuring unseasoned FBI Special Agent Anna Turnipseed and relentless Bureau of Indian Affairs Investigator Emmett Parker, Mitchell pulls out all the stops....Mitchell [is] a powerful writer of deep emotions, breathtaking natural beauty and nail-biting suspense. ( Publishers Weekly)

If you're looking for the really scary...

I like to listen to audible while falling asleep, but that won't work with this writer, who has an endless imagination for scary stuff, plot twists, and enough valid characters to keep you guessing. This one is intriguing.

Can't wait to start the next one!

Another GREAT book, well narrated, with well developed characters and an interesting storyline. Thanks for this freebie Audible, the series is excellent!
A side note; As someone with way too many possessions (think hoarder), I can tell you with certainty that what you keep or throw away absolutely effects your well being!

Not Hillerman but still good

No this Kirk is not Tony Hillerman but still a darn good author in his own right. Good characters, wonder story line.

Good but not Hillerman

Good suspense and well developed characters. And, a lot of surprises in the plot. Pretty graphic though, a route not taken by Tony Hillerman. I hope Audible supplies us with future episodes. Its a solid four stars.

Gritty mystery of the native American southwest

It’s fairly obvious that Tony Hillerman‘s success with this particular genre has inspired the author. The writing is pretty good except for an occasional misused word - apparently there are no editors anymore and dictionaries are a thing of the past - and the plotting is tight and makes sense, generally speaking. The story is more violent and less spiritual than Hillerman fans might expect, but compelling nevertheless.
