Four-star review of
Killing Custer by Margaret Coel
Although I’d never read
any of the other books in this series of mysteries that take place near the
Wind River, I had no trouble immersing myself in the lives of Father John and
Arapaho lawyer Vicky Holden. A Custer impersonator, Edward Garrett, is killed
during a parade in the town of Lander, Wyoming, and suspicion falls on two of
the young Arapaho men who took part in a dare ride around Garrett and the men
impersonating two of his lieutenants. It’s up to Father John and Vicky to clear
the names of the suspects by finding the real killer. The story is
well-written, and the characters are fleshed out. The author has done her
research on Custer and weaves what happened at the Little Big Horn and in
Washita deftly into the story.
