Officer Bernadette Manuelito had been sitting in her unit by the side of the road for an hour, watching the last of the twilight fade and the pinpoints of stars in the blue-gray sky.
Quite a long opening sentence!

I'm pretty sure I read all of Tony Hillerman's fiction when he was alive, and I've read Anne's first three books that pick up where her dad left off (though, I switched #3 and #2). Both authors wrote/write skillfully. The characters are well-developed, and the stories are layered and complex. I'm looking forward to reading Anne's 4th installment (released this past spring).
Anne is as good as her father.
