Ceremonial Death

Summary: heroic in her sunset
Review: If you cringe at unproven stereotypes and don't want to be alone, then it's time you bunked ( or is it debunked ) with Shirley McClintock. She is the golden (or is it silver) west of the '90's. Trailblazing a path that has taken her beyondthe trite well paved platitudes of old age, she still rides tall in the saddle. Oliphant's mystery series revolves around Ms.McClintock, and it had better be nimble or it will be left in the dust. While Oliphant plots an early and well thought out murder, Shirley is busy living another day infuriating and amusing herself with other people's stupidity. May she never retire or growup into youthful apathy. An original in fiction, I have a feeling there are many more real Shirleys in them thar hills. The plots are nearly as sound and interesting and fiery as Shirley-you can take her or leave her- I'll take her
