Turquoise Girl : An Ella Clah Novel by Aimée Thurlo, David Thurlo

(0 reviews)
11.99 USD
A serial killer stalks young Navajo men and women . . . and Ella Clah's family might be next in his sights, in Aimee and David Thurlo's Turquoise Girl!



Navajo Police Special Investigator Ella Clah has seen a lot of death in the decade since she returned to the Reservation, but nothing quite as bad as a series of violent murders of young Navajo. Something about the crime scene reminds Ella of her days in the FBI, and she calls on Agent Blalock for help. And that's not the only link to Ella's past—clues indicates that Ella's father may have tried to stop this killer before his own murder.

Working long hours, desperate to identify and stop the serial killer before he strikes again, Ella manages to squeeze in a few dates with Reverend Bilford Tome. Ella's father was a man of the cloth as well—is Ella following her mother's path, falling for a man whose faith she does not share?

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.



Praise for this book

“Gripping. A spirited blend of Navajo culture and police procedure.” —Booklist on Tracking Bear

“Mystery readers who like their murders solved by applied intelligence will love Ella Clah.” —New York Times bestselling author Tony Hillerman

“It's Tony Hillerman country, done in a low-key humanistic style.” —New Orleans Times-Picayune on Wind Spirit

“Tracking Bear is a great police procedural that gives readers an insightful look into the culture of the Navajo living on the reservation today. The who-done-it is complex, compelling and exciting.” —Midwest Book Review

“Realistic, fast-paced, and intense. Action scenes keep the plot moving at a quick pace with some surprises along the way, adding to the excitement.” —School Library Journal on Changing Woman

“A hair-raising opening. The Thurlos hit all the right notes: they have an intriguing, growing character at the center of a series that combines fast-moving plots and a wealth of fascinating cultural information.” —Booklist on Wind Spirit

“Red Mesa is an engrossing mystery as intricately woven as a fine Navajo rug. It kept me guessing to the end.” —New York Times bestselling author Margaret Coel

“A fascinating story. Ella Clah, strong and vulnerable at the same time, is an intriguing character of great depth, and the surprise ending will delight all mystery lovers.” —Romantic Times BookClub Magazine on Red Mesa

“An intense, spellbinding family drama in which the battle between good and evil affects both modernist and traditionalist Navajo. Prime reading for fans of Tony Hillerman and other Southwestern mysteries.” —Library Journal on Red Mesa
