Coyote Waits

We've taken to heading to the Santa Fe Library for DVDs and videos; with some forethought (and if we can actually remember the movies we wanted to see), we can reserve them. Mostly, it's just making do with what's there, but when it's picked over (which it usually is), it can lead to some odd decisions.

Yesterday, though, got my hands on the murder mystery Coyote Waits, based on the novel by local deity Tony Hillerman. I remembered reading about it when it came out, that it was the first American-produced show for the Mystery series. We've never read Hillerman novels, but we thought that this was terrific.

And, even though it takes place more in the Four Corners area, most of it was filmed in Albuquerque and just past Los Alamos in the Jemez Mountains.
