"The Blessing Way" is the first of Tony Hillerman's highly acclaimed novels to be made into a full audiobook. This mystery novel is set in the remote Navajo reservation in New Mexico and centers around the complex murder case of a young Navajo man. George Guidall, who has been narrating Hillerman's work since the author's death in 2008, provides an engrossing reading that will make you feel like you're right there with Joe Leaphorn as he uncovers clues that take him through the story's richly developed characters and environments.
This is a detective story set in the state of Arizona with a Navajo police officer, Jim Chee and Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn on the case. There have been mutilating murders which the FBI sends in an anthropologist to help out. Meanwhile, Chee and Leaphorn are trying to find out who is doing these murders and why. This is one of Tony Hillerman's best books.
This is the fifth and final book in Tony Hillerman's series about Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee. This book is about a Navajo boy, who was kidnapped and forced to have sex with men and women. A Caucasian woman had also raised him since infancy, but he was found by his birth mother after being left by his father, a shaman on a quest for power. The novel takes place in the area of Tuba City, Arizona where Joe Leaphorn resides.
"George Guidall's narration of this classic western-literature mystery is superb and he perfectly captures the speech patterns of the native Navajos."
The Blessing Way is the penultimate book in the Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee Navajo Tribal Police series. As a cop, Leaphorn's one fear is being forced out of the job, and after an inquiry by higher-ups into his past, that fear becomes reality. The Blessing Way follows him as he reconsiders his career and what made it satisfying in the first place. He meets Mary Landon who takes him under her wing and throws herself into training him for his new job as a private detective.
