Readers reviews

• WOW!
Make yourself plenty comfortable before you start reading David Knop's Mining Sacred Ground, because this beautifully-written story will take you places no one in his right mind would go. Knop has invaded territory formerly the exclusive property of Tony Hillerman, and you'll get a chilling ride alongside a worn out ex-Marine trying to do the right thing even though he's pretty sure he'll die in the attempt.
— Gene Riehl, author of Quantico Rules and Sleeper, FBI thrillers from St. Martin's Press

• A Must!
What most endears Mining Sacred Ground to me is the vivid authenticity of its Arizona setting and of the characters who inhabit the state's rural places. With a sharp eye for detail, Mr. Knop has created a world in which strange and mystic events happen.
