The Brave (2009)
“Her blouse was embroidered with an ancient Onondaga design, but it was cut too low in front for any Indian woman to wear in a ceremony. Her brown leather pants were tight on her slim hips.
He was embarrassed when she hugged him and kissed him on the lips. She squeezed his biceps and said, “Wow,” then pushed him out to arm’s length.

“Dump, Answedaywe?” There was sarcasm in the way Jake said her Moscondaga name.
“Oh, Uncle Jake.” She threw her arms around his neck. “You know what I mean.”
“What do you mean?” asked Jake.
A tall white man, elegantly wrapped in a pale-gray suit that matched the limo, put a large hand on her bare shoulder. She patted it.

Bear's obsession with Doll, who betrayed and stole all his money , got him into police records is highly unsettling for the story. One can imagine that on the verge of success he'll give it up because of Doll, and ruin his like. Makes the book harder to read, feeling a waste of time.Write Review:
