Less Than a Treason

Kate Shugak, Book 21

De: Dana Stabenow

Narrado por: Marguerite Gavin

Two thousand people go missing in Alaska every year.

They vanish in the middle of mountain footraces, on fishing boats in the Bering Sea, on small planes in the Bush. Now a geologist known for going walkabout with his rock hammer has disappeared from the Suulutaq Mine in the Park. Was it deliberate? An accident? Foul play? Kate Shugak may be the only person who can find out.

But for the fact that Kate, too, is among the missing....

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Richly nuanced, [and] highly entertaining.... The book is sprinkled with wit, studded with exquisite descriptions of the rugged landscape, and filled with opinionated and endearing characters, including reality TV show producers, park rangers, geologists, and barkeeps." ( Publishers Weekly, starred review)

Great book

Once again Dana Stabenow has outdone herself. For those of you who have not read or listened to the Kate Shugak series please do so, you're in for something special.

Alaska culture

Dana Stabenow is Alaska! The people! The land! The culture! She knows of what she writes! I love her characters… good and bad and her stories!

Love Kate, not sure about narrator

I love Kate Shugak even though I think the earlier books were better than the more recent ones.
I'm not sure I would have chosen this narrator for the series though. I see that she has narrated most of them. I find her kind of aggressive in her reading, and her voice is a bit high pitched. and a bit too fast. Kate has a deep raspy voice because of her throat injury and things move slowly in the park... so I think someone with a deeper slower voice would suit better. But it's not enough to make me stop listening!

Just as gripping as always

I never fail to enjoy the breadth and depth of the K as te Shuman mysteries. Just wish this one had lasted longer as there's more time passing between each new book now. PS.,Kate's doc is right she can't afford any more blows to the head. Rather read as she uses it to solve the question than as a target.

Love everything by Dana Stabinow
