About this listen
Travis Birdsong sits in prison for killing his partner in the crime. He has always maintained his innocence in the death and has never been tried for stealing the petroglyph. Attorney Vicki Holden decides to take the case, much to the chagrin of her law partner and lover Adam Lone Eagle and the Wind River Reservation tribes. Vicki is convinced that Travis must be innocent because another petroglyph has been stolen out of the canyon. She is even more convinced after the thieves contact the mission priest, Father John O'Malley, in order to get the tribes to buy the artifact back.
As Father John tries to get the petroglyph back and Vicki tries to prove Travis is innocent, the two situations collide.

In Wild Thyme, Pennsylvania, secrets and feuds go back generations.

Story
Something weird is happening to the Los Angeles freeways - phantom cars, lanes from nowhere, and sometimes unmarked off-ramps that give glimpses of a desolate desert highway - and Sebastian Vickery, disgraced ex-Secret Service agent, is a driver for a covert supernatural-evasion car service. But another government agency is using and perhaps causing the freeway anomalies, and their chief is determined to have Vickery killed because of something he learned years ago at a halted Presidential motorcade. Reluctantly aided by Ingrid Castine, a member of that agency, and a homeless Mexican boy....

You probably haven't noticed them. But they've noticed you. They notice everything. That's their job. Sitting quietly in a nondescript car outside a bank making note of the tellers' work habits. Lagging a few car lengths behind the Brinks truck on its daily rounds. Surreptitiously jiggling the handle of an unmarked service door at the racetrack. They're heisters.

Wonderful series- narrator quality dips in this one
The first narrator in this series was perfect. I could barely listen to this new narrator.

Not as good as earler
I've enjoyed other books with these characters more. I found the reader whiny and because of that distracting.

Great Book !
My son introduced me to this author and I am so glad that he did. Her books are wonderful .I particularly like this one. Her female main character cannot seem to overlook the individuals of the tribe rather than the ruling body and I like her dedication to the individual. It was, as usual, a great read.

I want to like it more...
... but, this being my first time reading Coel, here are some things that ran through my mind. I loved the characters, and I loved the Historical setting ( Wind River, Native Americans, etc etc), but I felt this story was a little drawn out, dragging in some areas.

Excellent story, Poor narration
This performance did not do justice to a great story. The reader repeatedly mispronounced every place name in the book: Washakie, Ethete, Popo Agie, Dubois. The author effectively used locale to set scenes and verify the setting which was paramount to the storyline. The narrator should have done her homework.

I loved it! I think all Margaret Coel’s stories Aries are “page-turners,” and the narrator was great!

Andrea Bates isn't the best narrator for Coel.
This narrator mispronounces many place names. Other narrators are more appropriate for Margaret Coel's work.
The story is typical Coel, and is quite interesting.

drowning man survives
the story is great but something about the performance of the reader bothers my. the reader's voice inflections were sometimes annoying, seemed like at times overscting and at other times seemed to miss the point and detracted from the story. sorry to be harsh but the story is of the same quality as Tony Hillerman. perhaps I should have read it rather than listen.
