Blurb states: New York Times bestselling author Anne Hillerman brings together modern mystery, Navajo traditions, and the evocative landscape of the desert Southwest in this intriguing entry in the Leaphorn, Chee, and Manuelito series.
- Not a historical mystery!

Where are these books located on the list? I'd be happy to remove them.

Here is a mystery: When did authors, in general, stop writing stand-alone works and switch to series? I do like a great series (Poirot, Marple, Lizbeth, Ian Rutledge, Hamish MacBeth) but I also like great stand alone books. The best series ever? Hamish: he need do nothing, there need be no plot, it's a vaca to Scotland and Hamish can have tea with the neighbors and a pint or two at the pubs and that's enough for me. In fact, in a number of Beaton's books, that's about all that happens. And that's fine.

Series have become a lot more prevalent in the last 30 years, and I want to say even in the last 20.

And even with Christie, who was prolific, a lot of those series are "in name only," when it comes down to it.

Hamish is my favorite escape as well, I am reading "Death of a Glutton" right now ;)
