"The way Garwood used the Dakota tribe made me feel incredibly uncomfortable. I’m also dubious at best that women were so subservient in their society. The exoticism alone knocked off a star for me.<br/><br/>I found Lyon icky, and I found Christina obnoxious. The villains were one note.<br/><br/>Hated it, but I did not full on rage which prevented me from rating it a one star. Such a let down from my experience with other Garwood works."
