Anne Hillerman has continued these Leaphorn & Chee mysteries after her father’s death. They are excellent, continuing the settings and characters made famous by her the Tony Hillerman Navajo police mysteries, perhaps even better since they include a feminine perspective. Although called Leaphorn & Chee stories, they might better be called the Bernadette Manuelito sagas since Jim Chee’s wife is the protagonist. Five stars. Located under FIC HIL at the #JemezSpringsLibrary and probably at your local library, too.

This is my personal blog. It records notes from whatever I am currently studying, words I want to remember to use correctly, records of other things I want to remember, or an opinion I want to think my way through. Sometimes I publish short stories here. As to who I am, let it suffice to know I am a grandchild (with Madeliene L’Engle) of George MacDonald, a child of the Inklings, and the one who always wonders, “What is behind that wardrobe cabinet?” And, I’m one of the proofreaders/editors for Project Gutenberg, so, yes, I might be the one to blame for missing that wrong letter inserted by our optical character recognition. On the other hand, I may have been the editor who caught all the ones you didn’t find. And, I also have a personal journal online. It holds my innermost thoughts, is occasionally highly personal and opinionated, but is never really interesting.

Recently someone told me about a coworker who was so puffed up that the inevitable collision with a pin took out half the office. I told her that was Rule Number Eight. See my Rules of Life. Rule Number Eight states that the more you believe you are invincible, the more vincible you become.
