Críticas:

Harlick's prose and characterization is as competent as ever and the slow reveal of the reasons why Allistair was murdered is skillfully handled. * Publishers Weekly * This is the best Harlick yet. * Globe and Mail * By showing both sides of the Indian-versus-European cultural dispute, [Harlick] wisely avoids the trap of painting one side's history as pure evil, the other's as sinless. This even-handedness brings complexity and depth to what could have been a mere diatribe. Instead, we get a superb novel that lends itself to reread after reread. * Mystery Scene Magazine * Fans of the earlier books in the series will give this one an enthusiastic thumbs-up, and it will work fine as a jumping-off point for new readers. * Booklist * It wasn't long ago that I paid a visit to British Columbia's Museum of Anthropology in Vancouver. There on display, are the `Totems of Shame', long ago removed from their original villages. It was with a shudder of recognition that I joined [characters] Meg and Eric for a much-remembered tour of the red cedar carvings of the coast. * Sun Times *

Reseña del editor:

The murder of a young Haida carver reawakens sibling rivalries best forgotten and sends Meg Harris and her husband, Eric Odjik, to Haida Gwaii in search of the boy's family and his killer. She unravels a tangle of betrayal and clan rivalries that not only reach back to when the Haida were mighty warriors, but continue to the present day.
