“Redemption, by Deborah J. Ledford, gets under your skin. Fresh and ferocious Native American deputy Eva ‘Lightning Dance’ Duran never lets up in her quest woven through the Taos Pueblo land. Atmospheric and awash with color, customs, and ancient ways. I loved this.” —Cara Black, New York Times bestselling author“Deborah J. Ledford has artfully woven the voices of multiple characters connected to the Taos Pueblo to create a pattern of stories that illuminate the challenges as well as the enduring power of Native American women. The rhythm of daily life is evident in Ledford’s lovely, intimate prose. I eagerly await the new adventures of Eva Duran, who will, no doubt, unearth more mysteries in the buried layers of New Mexico.” —Naomi Hirahara, the Mary Higgins Clark Award–winning author of Clark and Division“Redemption is a page-turner!
