SACRED
CLOWNS by Tony Hillerman, It's difficult to find new superlatives
to describe Hillerman's work. Everything he writes is an instant best-seller, and
Hillerman himself is revered by colleagues and fans alike. The secrets of his success are
many: his unique and charismatic characters; his authentic descriptions of Native American
customs and social structures; his clever, catchy plots; and the genuine warmth and appeal
of his writing. And all those attributes are certainly present in his latest novel, which
features Navaho tribal policemen Joe Leaphorn and Jim Chee. Unorthodox maverick Chee hates
detail, solves crimes using flashes of intuition and leaps of logic, and works best solo.
Leaphorn is the yin to Chee's yang, attacking tough cases with hard work, persistence, and
logic--playing strictly by the book. But with a heavy caseload (including two murder
cases, a hit-and-run accident, a possible bribery and corruption scandal within the tribe,
and a counterfeit racket involving sacred tribal artifacts) and some tricky personal
problems (a love match with a lady lawyer for Chee, a trip to China with a female
professor for Leaphorn), the two quickly learn the importance of understanding and
teamwork. (Paperback Fiction)
