SynopsisThe state police and FBI are baffled when an old man and a teenage girl are brutally murdered. The blind Navajo Listening Woman speaks of ghosts and of witches. But Lieutenant Leaphorn of the Navajo Tribal Police knows his people as well as he knows cold-blooded killers. His incredible investigation carries him from a dead man's secret to a kidnap scheme, to a conspiracy that stretches back more than one hundred years. Leaphorn arrives at the threshold of a solution--and is greeted with the most violent confrontation of his career., Don't miss the TV series, Dark Winds, based on the Leaphorn, Chee, & Manuelito novels, now on AMC and AMC+! "Hillerman's mysteries are special . . .

The blind shaman called Listening Woman speaks of witches and restless spirits, of supernatural evil unleashed. But Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn of the Navajo Tribal Police is sure the monster who savagely slaughtered an old man and a teenage girl was human. Now the solution to a horrific crime is buried somewhere in a dead man's secrets--and in the shocking events of a hundred years past. To ignore the warnings of a venerable seer, however, might be reckless foolishness when Leaphorn's investigation leads him farther away from the comprehensible . . . and closer to the most brutally violent confrontation of his career., Don't miss the TV series, Dark Winds , based on the Leaphorn, Chee, & Manuelito novels, now on AMC and AMC+!

  • Mystery at a slower pace than some.

    Tony Hillerman spends more time describing the Navajo culture and the beauty of the 4 Corners area than on action. This is what I love about his books. There are still enough thrills, mystery, and adventure to satisfy this mystery/thriller lover. Listening Woman interested me from start to finish.

  • Another stunning thriller from Tony Hillerman!

    Another great thriller from Tony Hillerman involving brutal murders, a kidnapping scheme and a conspiracy that stretches back more than a hundred years. This is a rip-roaring story and is suspenseful from beginning to end.
