THE ANGEL OF INDIAN LAKE The Indian Lake Trilogy, Book 3

In this trilogy, which uses the horror genre to explore generational trauma, Sisseton Wahpeton Dakota actor Isabella Star LaBlanc leads an ensemble cast. Listeners return to Proofrock, Idaho, "murder capital of America." Voicing first-person narrator Jade "Slasher Girl" Daniels, LaBlanc walks the knife edge between anguish and rage as the young Blackfeet woman confronts a third massacre, never losing hold of the character's mordant sense of humor. Interleaved with Jade's account of the bloodbath are hilariously fussy reports on Jade's actions from a private investigator--neatly captured by Andrew J. Robinson. As the bodies fall, the mysteries untwist and retwist, with Jade striving to protect those she loves. Stephen King makes a delightful cameo; author Jones (who's also Blackfeet) delivers the final perfect chapter. Full of heart--and blood. V.S.
