John Tall Wolf is Apache and Navajo who works as a BIA cop. His boss is Coyote. If that's not enough to grab your attention and hold it, as a Fed, he should be in competition with other Feds, like the FBI &c. Instead, Tall Wolf plays well with others including the local cops and actually prefers others get the credit.
Eight 'Indians' rob a bank in New Orleans during a city-wide hacking job where all traffic lights go 'green.' Due to the Native American ethnicity of the robbers, Tall Wolf is called in.
Why eight? What kind of sign language do they use during the robberies (yes, there's more than one)? What tribe do they belong to? All good questions, and eventually, all is made clear.
There was one major mistake in the story. Is Mr. Flynn using Aaron Elkins's tactic of deliberately placing a mistake in his books to get letters from readers? I don't know. Was their a mistake in Book 1? I don't remember. And, no, I'm not divulging said mistake. If you catch it, you'll chuckle like I did. If you don't, it won't affect the story at all.
A great read. In this time of Novel Coronovirus, I think I'll binge the whole series.
