Please ignore the misogynists who refused to read this book. Hillerman has her own voice and her own perspective. She didn't mimic her father's work, she is just allowing the character to live on. It is not at all surprising that the narrator has a new voice, nor that the central character is a woman. It you just have to have all your books be about men, and the women they conquer, find something else. This book is still honoring the Navajo way of life including the place of women before the white people's near genocide of the people. It is not a rant against white people, but it does not pull any punches when saying how life on the reservation actually is.
