   No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.  Amarj33t_5ingh | Jul 8, 2022 |  Talking God is an excellent story. This Leaphorn and Chee novel does not take place on the reservation. So there are no descriptions of the beautiful southwest. This particular book takes place in Washington D.C. It is an interesting location for a story that shows one the wrong ways of the "privileged class." The book received five stars in this review because it was a good suspenseful, well written story. (  ) lbswiener | Jul 7, 2021 | This was my first Hillerman novel and I thoroughly enjoyed it. An activist Navajo wannabe gets arrested for graveyard robbery while an older man is found dead by the railroad tracks, without identifying information including teeth. The story had Native American aspects that I found interesting, the characters were believable, and the mystery plausible. I gave it an extra 1/2 star for keeping me up past my bedtime to finish the last 30 or so pages. (  ) fuzzi | Dec 11, 2020 | 2020 reread via audiobook narrated by Christian Baskous: Good narration and I like the way Leaphorn and Chee's separate interests come together.

Leaphorn and Chee unite in a high-stakes game when they discover Chilean anarchists plan to carry out a spectacular assassination within Washington itself. Hillerman's narrative and prose is on the mark and they unite to present a gut-wrenching conclusion.
A highly memorable novel. (
