RESERVATIONS by Richard Paolinelli

It's not science fiction or fantasy, but if you like thrillers, you are going to love RESERVATIONS. I really enjoyed it. There was a lot of depth to the characters, and an underlying story that makes you want to read the next adventure of Jack Del Rio.

To me, Jack Del Rio is a Bond type, or a character you might see as an investigator on Criminal Minds. While I am not as well versed as an officer in the ins and outs of detective work, I am an alumni of the Citizens Police Academy and have had some training in police and detective work. I thought his characters were believable, and I enjoyed seeing them in action.

I am definitely giving this book five stars!

About RESERVATIONS by Richard Paolinelli

Who – or what – is killing members of the Navajo tribe?

RESERVATIONS, a mystery/thriller, is set near Gallup, New Mexico, where the Navajo, Hopi and Zuni reservations lie adjacent. Three tribal leaders have been murdered - murdered in a fashion that suggests the deeds were carried out by COYOTE, a legendary supernatural evil trickster feared by many Native Americans. 

The tribal president contacts an old friend in the FBI for assistance in solving the crimes and preventing more murders. Star agent, Jack Del Rio, is dispatched to New Mexico where he finds a situation tangled in political intrigue. Jack must work his way through those issues on his way to solving the mystery. Sparks fly as Navajo police officer Lucy Chee is assigned to assist him in his quest. 

Question is can Del Rio and Chee solve the mystery and find the killer before he strikes again? If not, who is next? (Amazon)
