Publisher's Summary
A Night Too Dark is New York Times best-selling writer Dana Stabenow’s latest, the 17th in a series chronicling life, death, love, tragedy, mischief, controversy, nature, and survival in Alaska, America’s last real frontier.
In Alaska, people disappear every day. In Aleut detective Kate Shugak’s Park, they’ve been disappearing a lot lately. Hikers head into the wilderness unprepared and get lost. Miners quit without notice at the busy Suulutaq Mine. Suicides leave farewell notes and vanish.
Not only are Park rats disappearing at an alarming rate, but so is life in the Park as Kate knows it. Alaska state trooper Jim Chopin’s workload has increased to where he doesn’t make it home three nights out of four; the controversial mine has seduced Johnny and his classmates with summer jobs and divided the Niniltna Native Association—the aunties are to a woman selling out—and a hostile environmental activist organization has embraced the Suulutaq Mine as their reason for being. It’s almost a relief when Kate finds a body. This she can handle. Until the identity of the body vanishes, too.
In this latest Kate Shugak novel, the smart, sexy P.I., her wolf/husky hybrid Mutt, and Chopper Jim are only just beginning to realize the fallout from the discovery of the world’s second-largest gold mine in their backyard. “Mine change everything,” Auntie Vi said in Whisper to the Blood (the previous book in the series and the first to hit the New York Times best seller list). And it’s only just beginning.
State of suspense: listen to more Alaskan mysteries in the Kate Shugak series.

"Another good book"
I liked this book. It's the kind of book you want to read while you're curled up by the fire on a cold winter day. It's not horrifying or erotic, just a smooth read. The author uses enough 'color' in her verbiage to keep you wanting to read more.

"Really entertaining"
I really enjoyed this book. Great Humor, romance, quirky who dunnit twists and great characters. I had originally started this series on the 11th book and got hooked so I went back to the 1st one and have listened to them all. I've come to enjoy Marguerite Gavin's interpretations of each character.

"A big disappointment"
I have read many books by this author which I enjoyed very much. However, this book was a big disappointment. It is not up to her usual standards. Still love audible though and will be buying a bunch more.

"Simply the Best"
Stabenow never fails to intrigue, surprise and entertain me with her beautifully crafted novels. Though each book is richly satisfying, she has always left me hungry for the next entry in this series.

"A Night Of Profanity"
I found this book very slow moving with a very weak plot. In no way do you get the sense of knowing the characters as they are not developed to any extent. The people of Alaska are portrayed as uneducated and have to use profanity to express themselves. I kept hoping that the story would improve but that just did not happen. Save yourself a credit and having to listen to ten hours of gutter trash language.

"Little Creativity"
I was very disappointed by this book. If I didn't know better I'd say this is the work of an 8th grader because half of the book is "He said"/"She said". It appeared to me that the author lacks the creativity to use "Jim replied" vs "Jim said". Also, she used the word 'said' for questions. Any 5th grader would know better than that. There are many ways to express dialog without the use of the verb "say". It bothered me so much that I looked into the author's career and found she has written many books prior to this one. If all her books are like this, I will not buy another book from her.
