Song of the Lion by Anne Hillerman Book Summary

Don’t miss the TV series, Dark Winds, based on the Leaphorn, Chee, & Manuelito novels, now on AMC and AMC+!  

New York Times Bestseller

“Fans of Leaphorn, Chee, and Manuelito, characters created by the author’s father, Tony Hillerman, will savor this multilayered story of suspense, with its background of contemporary environmental vs. development issues.” — Library Journal

A deadly bombing takes Navajo Tribal cops Bernadette Manuelito, Jim Chee, and their mentor, the legendary Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn, back into the past to find a vengeful killer in this riveting Southwestern mystery from the bestselling author of Spider Woman’s Daughter and Rock with Wings.

When a car bomb kills a young man in the Shiprock High School parking lot, Officer Bernadette Manuelito discovers that the intended victim was a mediator for a multi-million-dollar development planned at the Grand Canyon.

But what seems like an act of ecoterrorism turns out to be something far more nefarious. Piecing together the clues, Bernadette and her husband, Sergeant Jim Chee, uncover a scheme to disrupt the negotiations and inflame tensions between the Hopi and Dine tribes.

Retired Lieutenant Joe Leaphorn has seen just about everything in his long career. As the tribal police’s investigation unfolds, he begins to suspect that the bombing may be linked to a cold case he handled years ago. As he, Bernadette, and Chee carefully pull away the layers behind the crime, they make a disturbing discovery: a meticulous and very patient killer with a long-simmering plan of revenge.

Writing with a clarity and grace that is all her own, Anne Hillerman depicts the beauty and mystery of Navajo Country and the rituals, myths, and customs of its people in a mystery that builds on and complements the beloved, bestselling mysteries of her acclaimed father, Tony Hillerman.

Song of the Lion. Another really good book. Thank you Anne for carrying on, I look forward to your next one.

Another fun read. I savored Tony's book and I deeply enjoy reading Anne's books. Manuelito is a great addition and I love having her perspective, in addition to Leaphorn and Chee, during the mysteries. I can't wait for book 4!

Discomforting Uneasiness of...Translation. It seems to me that any attempt to accurately reflect Navajo consciousness via the English language is destined to fail from the outset, but Ann Hillerman manages to manifest the discomforting uneasiness of that translation with considerable skill and compassion. I doubt anyone can read this novel cover to cover without gaining immense empathy and affection for the principal characters. Bravo!

Excellent. Love the feeling of understanding the indigenous people's view of the environment. The connection to the animal, plants and all of nature

Song of the Lion. Each book by Anne Hillerman is better than the last and this one is certainly outstanding. Her characters grow richer and her narrative describing them, the countryside, and its inhabitants more interesting and insightful. The plot is full of twists and turns and suspense that keeps the reader unable to stop reading. And, the ending, though unanticipated, is satisfying. It is a pleasure to read and leaves you sad to finish and anxious for another tale told so well.

Beautifully and humbly written. A true story teller

Song of the Lion. Anne, I so do love the Chees' and Leaphorns' adventures! I always look forward to the next book! Glad Leaphorn is becoming stronger and more able to assist Jim and Bernie in their criminal cases. I have actually read all of Tony Hillerman's novels and now you have taken the gauntlet! I do hope you continue to help Bernie and Jim solve even more perplexing cases in the future! Loved Song of the Lion. Thanks for a great absorbing read!

Song of The Lion Anne Hillerman. This story evolves around tensions between tribes and environmentalists who are protesting construction near the river that runs through the Grand Canyon. Navajo tribal Police Sergeant Chee and his wife Navajo police Officer Bernie is helping him.LT Joe Leaphorn recovering from an assault when he was shot is also assisting in the investigation.An excellent read!!! Enjoyed immensely!! My highest recommendation!!
