Red Knife - the massacre book
Red Knife by William Kent Krueger: Didn't expect the ending to this one. I suppose if I had read it when it was published, it would have been less unexpected and more sad and timely. Maybe. Anyway, a suicide, a double murder, a reservation gang, some bigots, more murder, moral decisions, decisions about the future, possible drug connections, and some reservation justice bring this all to a close. Except for that terrible coda. Krueger does different things with each book, branching out to focus on different characters instead of keeping a mostly single focal point of view in this one. There was just more massacre-ing than I really wanted to deal with.
