Publisher's summary
Arapaho attorney Vicky Holden and Father John O'Malley are determined to find the identity of the forgotten woman and see that she is laid to rest in the traditional Arapaho Way. Their search leads them into the 1970s and the dark underbelly of an organization that had spoken out on behalf of Indian rights. They soon run into a wall of silence. No one wants to talk about a time when many crimes, including murder, went unsolved. No one wants to admit the part they may have played, or the guilt they may still carry. No one wants to remember a young woman accused of being a snitch.
As the life and death of the woman begin to come into view, Vicky and Father John realize that the killer who has gotten away with murder for more than 30 years is still on the reservation and that they are about to be his next victims.

Story
What’s happening in Acker’s Gap, West Virginia? Three elderly men are gunned down over their coffee at a local diner, and seemingly half the town is there to witness the act. Still, it happened so fast, and no one seems to have gotten a good look at the shooter. Was it random? Was it connected to the spate of drug violence plaguing poor areas of the country just like Acker’s Gap? Or were Dean Streeter, Shorty McClurg, and Lee Rader targeted somehow?

Mispronounced Wyoming place names.
The mispronunciation of actual Wyoming place names is disturbing and distracting for Wyoming native listeners.

not pleasant
Way too much detail and repetition. The narrator is awful. She put emphasis in the wrong places, etc. Probably a good story but, hard to finish.

oh dear, different narrator
What did you like best about The Girl With Braided Hair? What did you like least?
gosh ....a beloved series, but this narrator's take on the characters, especially the priest father john, is really jarring...and she sings, the narrator...i believe at the one hour point she has let her voice soar at least five times...again, since this is supposed to be a native american woman, her admittedly lovely soprano voice is...jarring. i was too comfy with the other voices, i guess, which just shows how crucial narration is...a wonderful series not to be missed and i'm feeling crotchety because i really wanted to escape into this story so take me with a grain of salt...
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Andrea Bates?
whoever narrated the rest of the series
Could you see The Girl With Braided Hair being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?
oh this is the silliest damn reviewing format....done!

Excellent story, poor delivery<br />
This reader is obviously not familiar with locale or mysteries. Not a romance. Most distressing.
