The blessing way di Tony Hillerman

Interesting and enjoyable mystery , with no Chee and very
little leaphorn. In fact…it’s more of an “adventure “ story with the myth collecting
Professor having to avoid the death dealing “witch” throughout.kept my interest and will read more. Native American lore included has great interest
