I bought this book for Ray soon after we met because this detective series has a heavy anthropological component. Ray wasn't impressed when he read it, and I can see why. It isn't well written.... It feels choppy with missing pieces. It's not horrible, either, and it did what I wanted... It gave me a bit of a glance into Southwestern US culture. I am interested in that because we are likely soon going to the Grand Canyon.
I had no idea that pottery and arachaeological digs were so significant to the area. Nor did I know about the cultural group (called Anasazi by the Navaho) which suddenly disappeared 5 or 600 years ago.
