New book blog

The new book I'm reading is called "Dance Hall of the Dead" and it is a murder mystery written by Tony Hillerman.

"George was certainly crazy, but George was his friend, and here now was his bicycle and George would be waiting. The figure which stepped from behind the boulders was not George."

This is only five pages into the book and already I am beginning to feel intrigued by it. Who is this stepping from behind the boulder? Is it a dangerous person or is the author just wanting us to think that? My thought is that this is a dangerous person and that it is who kidnapped George and his friend, but it all seems to simple to me. However the complexity of this novel is sure to increase as I read along but right now simplicity is fine in the first few chapters as I am just getting a sense of whats going on. This seems like a good quick read but not a complete waste of my time that I could be wasting watching the colts and patriots on Sunday Night Football.
