Dagny Taggart Jamison is a private investigator working for her brother-s P.I. firm in Santa Barbara, California, where she meets Lucy Navarro.
Lucy is a graduate student in anthropology who studies the Churok Native American culture. She comes home to find her roommate and best friend, Judy Raskin, hanging from the light fixture in her bedroom. Judy-s professor had rejected her doctoral dissertation that day, and everybody thinks her death is a suicide. But Lucy is sure it is murder.
Hot on the trail of Judy-s ex-boyfriend, who has fled, Dagny and Lucy find him hanged in a lonely dell in the redwood forest that surrounds the University of California at Santa Cruz. Again, suicide appears to be the plausible explanation.
Dagny-s dogged investigation reveals that the two dead students had entered into a partnership with two cultists and a high-ranking Churok Indian shaman to reopen a defunct gold mine on the Churok Indian reservation. Now, armed with a motive for murder, Dagny presses ahead.

This first novel by Robert Rodman (who is well known for his bestselling linguistics textbook An Introduction to Language) is the perfect summer beach read, or perhaps a wonderful way to spend a snowed-in weekend.I found the writing to be at least as good as that of some of today's bestselling suspense authors--Dean Koontz, James Patterson, Clive Cussler come to mind. The plot is clear but keeps you guessing. The descriptions of settings are really well colored. The author brings it all to life!
But what Rodman does best is work with characters. The protagonist--Dagny--is a worthy star in the making. At the same time both vulnerable and strong, she's an accessible and admirable heroine. You will, in fact, fall in love with Dagny by the end of the book!
Rating: 4.5/5 stars

P.S. The similarity in surname between the author of 'The Evil That Men Do' and the author of this review is purely ancestral.
