Sintesi dell'editore
A murdered man in a field. The sheriff needs Cash - a 20-something tough, smart Indian woman with special seeing powers.
Cash and Sheriff Wheaton make for a strange partnership. He pulled her from her mother's wrecked car when she was 3. He's kept an eye out for her ever since. It's a tough place to live - northern Minnesota along the Red River. Cash navigated through foster homes, and at 13 was working farms. She's tough as nails, 5 feet, 2 inches, blue jeans, blue jean jacket, smokes Marlboros, drinks Bud Longnecks. Makes her living driving truck. Playing pool on the side.
Wheaton is big lawman type. Maybe Scandinavian stock, but darker skin than most. He wants her to take hold of her life. Get into junior college. So there they are, staring at the dead Indian lying in the field. Soon Cash was dreaming the dead man's cheap house on the Red Lake Reservation, mother and kids waiting. She has that kind of power. That's the place to start looking. There's a long and dangerous way to go to find the men who killed him. Plus there's Jim, the married white guy. And Long Braids, the Indian guy headed for Minneapolis to join the American Indian Movement.

loved it
In all my life as a Native who grew up around white people this was possibly the most relatable content I've had rhe pleasure of reading. Thank you, I will continue supporting Native women and people as we all have something to offer this world, I believe it now more than I did before listening.

Great book!
This was a great audible about Native Americans, stereotypes, and a good murder mystery. I am a black woman so I love reading and learning about different races and cultures. The descriptions given in this audible were very visual for me. The storyline was strong and believable. The main character was strong, smart, and but very sad because of her childhood. The narration fit perfectly! I hope this story continues with the same characters. I would love to see Cash go to school and join law enforcement with Winston.

Narration was too distracting
I’m not sure if this was intentional, or if all of Siiri Scott’s narrations sound this way, but I hated it. It is as if Scott is speaking in a super quiet, barely voiced whisper. There is very little inflection or range of expression, just this super chill, half asleep, don’t have the energy to use my actual speaking voice, whisper. I had to really concentrate to make myself focus on the story, which I really enjoyed. I want to listen to the next book in the series, but I don’t think I can face more of Scott’s voice.

Really Enjoyed this book
I enjoyed this book...not so much on the mystery but mostly learning about the main character. Hoping now that Cash has been introduced, the next story will include more on mystery action. I think Siiri Scott did an excellent job of narrating book.

Great story and narration
I liked the narration with good quality of the Ojibway language and actual sound of the language. The story was well written and kept my interest. I hope there is a sequel!

Such a moving story
Loved this story. My niece is native in Canada and while she didn’t go thru this horrific childhood I knew it happened to many native children. Heart breaking.

Why not try this Native American book ?
I really enjoyed this action filled audiobook. It is very stereotypical “indian” profiling. On the plus side of this book. A nice sheriff gets they young woman enrolled into college. I didn’t really notice the prevalence of drinking, immorality , or hate of White People, until I was trying to review it. I really did enjoy this book and hope there is more to this story.

Very Good
This was an very good listen.
I was unaware of the history of native American children. I found it very disturbing; I am informed now. The United States has not been good toward people of color. This is sad. Very good story and good narration. I would recommend this book.

Terrible
This is just an advert for Marlboro and Budweiser,the narrator sounds like she’s falling asleep and the story is non existent, go take up watching paint dry it’s better use of your time.

So compelling
A lot of sadness and the plight of the children even though it was fiction struck home how much the Native American Indians had to put up with. Enjoyed it but would have liked a bit more cheerfulness.

A disappointment
The story wasn’t done justice. The narration was weak, and the character plots were just, well, dull.
The constant references to smoking and drinking were absolutely tedious. It was underwhelming from start to finish.

A pleasant surprise
Not really a murder mystery story but I enjoyed the depth of character and location in increasing my understanding of the lives of Native American Indians. I have downloaded Book 2 as I am sure I will enjoy the colour

Narrator has soporific voice... sent me to sleep
I have to admit that I couldn't finish this audiobook due to the narrator's voice sending me to sleep at the best of times or just irritating me with her 'soft tones' at others. The characters also came across as stereotypes, but I may have been hypercritical because of the narrator irritating me. Gave up after 2 hours...
