About this audiobook

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 . . .

    Kate, she changed, but her world is changing faster. She not loving some of the changes. There some some really ugly humans in this book really really ugly. You will cheer when they get justice.Another fantastic story in one of my favorite series.

    In this most recent (last?) Kate Shugak mystery, Kate has been hiding out for three month to recover from being shot, mourn the loss of Mutt, and lick her wounds. In the meantime, her friends have feared that she was dead, and when she returns to her community she is already involved in an investigation of a missing person. Characters, both heroes and villains, from her earlier investigations, friendships, and romance all play a big part in solving this latest situation.

    Another great entry in the Kate Shugak series. The author portrays believable characters and an Alaskan setting that won't be experienced by most of us. The detective has a sense of place and her intuition keeps the story moving at a good pace. As always includes topical subjects to anchor the series.

    This was a must read to find out what happened to Kate and Mutt, after some really bad things happened at the end of the last book. It felt like the tying up of loose ends. Solid writing and an outstanding combination of setting, mystery and characters. #21 of 21 in the series and the current last one. However, the series does not appear to be complete...from this reader's perspective. Want more and I'll have to enter holding with some one-off Stabenow works.

    Definitely not a cozy mystery, Kate is one tough cookie. Her script for Recovering from the bullet wound received in her last case is to tear down and rebuild her wilderness cabin. Her attraction for stray corpses yields one long dead and mostly eaten by her habitat neighbors. Returning to her more civilized environs gains her a new job: to find a missing geologist. For a while, she and Chopper Jim keeps missing each other but their ultimate connection is prolonged, vigorous, and mutually enjoyable. The Park denizens do their thing, villains are thwarted and another enjoyable "Shugak of the North" story is told.

    4.25. One of my top five series, and it has been too long wait for this installment. This series has the sole dubious honor of being the only mystery series to bring me to tears, in a previous outing, due to a plot point that I was heartbroken over. Will admit to tearing up near the end of this one as well, though this time due to happiness. Love the way these books are put together, they just seem to flow seamlessly. Winning combination of the setting, Alaska, such fantastic descriptions of the Park. Almost, and I stress almost, makes me want to live there.Kate Shugak is such a great character, tough but vulnerable, private investigator, finds herself in danger often, but seems to plow ahead fearlessly. Unless it concerns her personal life, there past sorrows can make her afraid. The aunties, the women elders of the Park, use few words but manage to get their point across. Others as well, unique characters as they would have to be to live in this harsh environment. The stories, and there always seem to be more than one, often tie together in surprising ways. Not edge of your seat action, but I have come to care for these people and this place. Solid writing and a winning combination of setting, mystery and characters.
