Wow, this book was stunning. The sort of book that sneaks up on you like a gunshot in the night. I am glad to see an increasing range in genre of indigenous stories these recent years. Daunis is biracial and struggles to belong to either side of her family without alienating the other. Not only that, but as she gets pulled into working with federal agents in a meth ring investigation, she is then torn between helping and turning against her own Native community. But oh boy does she have the ovaries to take on all of this and then some. Take a glance at the trigger warnings before diving in; it’s absolutely worth the hours of sleep lost.
I am really looking to more books by this author, they've immediately set a high bar for themselves. I also think this is an excellent crossover for adult readers!
