 | Savannah Blues Will Chase the Blues! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful
I picked this one up on vacation, hoping for a fun read. It didn't disappoint. Mary Kay Andrews is laugh-out-loud funny and the fact that the heroine is an antiques "picker" only added to the de... read full review |  | Wonderful Read! 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful

She is an elegant writer who probes the nuances of Native American culture with senstivity and finesse. This novel was no exception.
