Secret Shadows
- Book Review,
by Judie Aitken
From Booklist
Undercover FBI agent Dane White Eagle and Dr. Claire Colby are repeatedly thrown together. When Dane's cancer-stricken little sister is shot, Claire is the one who declares her dead in the hospital emergency room. Later, she is called to testify against him in the trial that sends him to prison and ends up treating him after he is knifed by another inmate. Then, when she takes a job running the clinic on the Cold Creek Lakota Reservation, she finds that Dane has returned there after being freed on a technicality. While Dane continues to pursue his mission to find an Ecstasy lab, Claire wonders how she can be falling for him, still believing him to be a criminal. A true storyteller, Aitken delivers a riveting, impossible-to-put-down read with memorable and sexy characters, an unforgettable plot, and impeccable pacing. Dane is not a stereotypical "Indian," and Aitken, herself Native American, pulls no punches in depicting the grim reality of the reservation. Diana Tixier Herald
