This police procedural has it all: fully-developed characters, realistic police work, accurate locations and a fascinating plot. I was reminded of Ann Cleeves' and William Kent Kruger's ability to dive into the psyche and emotions of each character, making each choice seem surprising but inevitable. I"m looking forward to following Detective Ruiz into further adventures!

Historia
When Theodora Tenpenny spills a bottle of rubbing alcohol on her late grandfather's painting, she discovers what seems to be an old Renaissance masterpiece underneath. That's great news for Theo, who's struggling to hang on to her family's 200-year-old townhouse and support her unstable mother on her grandfather's legacy of $463. There's just one problem: Theo's grandfather was a security guard at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and she worries the painting may be stolen.

Historia
Louise Erdrich's latest novel, The Sentence, asks what we owe to the living, the dead, to the reader and to the book. A small independent bookstore in Minneapolis is haunted from November 2019 to November 2020 by the store's most annoying customer. Flora dies on All Souls' Day, but she simply won't leave the store. Tookie, who has landed a job selling books after years of incarceration that she survived by reading "with murderous attention", must solve the mystery of this haunting.

unforgettable!
Revisado: 01-21-22
I marveled at the performance of reading this book, not realizing it was Louise herself! The character Tookie, whose story she tells, is an unforgettable, humanly flawed, deeply lovable woman i will never forget. Erdich walks a formidable line here as a writer, giving us Shakespearean humor while allowing those of us who are not Native American to walk in the shoes of a woman whose Native heritage shapes her entire reality.
