Dancing on Coals
Arizona Territory & Mexico 1881 & going forward.
This had Gaetan, an Apache, who knew 3 languages: Apache, English & Mexican, but refused to utter the last two.
Katherine, tall & slender, was from a New York family of father and sons in shipping. She grew up a tomboy and knew
how to hunt and use weapons. Gaetan used non-verbal cues to get Kate to sit, stand or heal, as if she were a dog.
He used the flat of his knife on her lips to get her to be silent. Finally about the mid-way point he decided to talk to
her! Big of him? Did the sun & moon collide?
I had mixed feelings about this couple who always seemed to fight off danger. The best part was the mountain
bathing pool scene. Gaetan was too casual about this relationship, until he wasn't.
Conclusion- more adventure than love story.
