Cold Mourning
Yeah - another series... can you hear the sarcasm? I picked this book because it took place at Christmas and I like to listen to Christmas books around the holidays, when I'm decorating, walking, driving, whatever. This book started out extremely graphic - I was a little surprised - my own expectations, nothing that was indicated by the book description. But once we got past the back story and into the present day case and scenario, I quite liked the characters and the book overall.
It takes place in Canada and addresses a different kind of racism than I am used to in the US. But you really buy the chemestry between the two main characters (Stonechild and Rouleau) and want to spend more time with them.
I think it is a series that I will defnintely continue and the back-story or underlying crisis that drives Stonechild is interesting enough to want to learn more.
4 out of 5 stars.
