Resumen del Editor

It is New Year's Eve, nearly six weeks into an off-and-on blizzard that has locked Alaska down, effectively cutting it off from the outside world. But now there are reports of a plane down in the Quilak mountains. With the NTSB (National Transportation Safety Board - responsible for investigating aviation incidents) unable to reach the crash site, ex-trooper Jim Chopin is pulled out of retirement to try to identify the aircraft, collect the corpses, and determine why no flight has been reported missing. But Jim discovers survivors: two children who don't speak a word of English. Meanwhile, PI Kate Shugak receives an unexpected and unwelcome accusation from beyond the grave - a charge that could change the face of the Park forever.

Loved it

Dana Stabenow has done it again, she’s created another story filled with all the mystery and intrigue as in previous installments. Marguerite Gavin, as always, breathes life into the storyline. I’m anxiously waiting fir the next in series.

all time favorite

I've read all Dana's books.
All the characters are to rich and full, I feel that I know them. My "Mutt" was named Lakota, half wolf and half husky. He was my best friend for 11 years. I had wanted to move to Alaska when they were giving land. Never made it but these special books made me wish I could have. Dana is blessed.

Love her books

Another great book from Dana Stabenow! I love following the characters as they move from book to book.

Dana Stabenow Brings Kate into Today's Issues

I've followed Kate from book 1 into this book released in 2020. I'm amazed at writers' abilities to keep characters fresh and interact with current US and international issues.

Stabenow brings 21st century issues into the park and Kate's life. Drugs/substance abuse, child abuse, spousal abuse, immigration, racial inequality have all been woven into plot lines. Readers know Kate's struggle with being seen as "less than" because of her Native American heritage.

I don't see Stabenow's latest book as departure from anything written prior. Corrupt politicians and powerful people are always found in her books. I am impressed with Stabenow's ability to make Kate fresh, vital and a warrior against injustice, even though Kate knows she often is limited in her ability to change more than her world.

5 stars from me. Yes, a few audio issues are present. But easily overlooked as I am a huge fan of Maugarite Gavin.

Just like old times

This was great. Felt just like old times. No more almost succeeding in killing Kate and Mutt. Nice seeing all the supporting characters including the awful Jane Morgan. hahaha

Wonderful narration as always.

Excellent! Except for the audio editing

Excellent as always, except the audio editing was poor. It was distracting but only periodically.

Never Disappointed!

As always, Ms. Stebenow delivers a powerful story. I truly love these characters. Can't wait for the next installment.

Couldn’t stop listening!

I live in Alaska and my sister and I were taking a road trip between Anchorage to Haines which in essence drives around the edges of “The Park” in the Kate Shugak mysteries. We couldn’t stop listening to this audiobook and even after an exhausting day in the car, we wanted to keep listening until the very end. Dana Stabenow is an incredible writer living in Homer and provides an amazing authentic Alaskan perspective in her books. I highly recommend all of the Kate Shugak mysteries and I’m eager to read her other series.

Great Book!

The storyline was interesting. Characters were Great! Overall, it was a fantastic book. I would definitely recommend reading it!

I Love This Series!

Yes, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, as I have all of the prior ones in this series! I hope that Kate, Mutt and Jim go on forever! Thank you for many hours of enjoyment for me!
