Review # 1 was written on 2019-08-29 00:00:00 Ken Blakeslee Kate, Mutt, Johny, Jim, Dan, Bernie, Gal.... I love all these characters. They've all been through some seriously hard times in the last two books and are finding some bits of happiness finally. I love the direction Kate is heading, it is a healing path. She has been living a life that has kept her from fully healing her past pains for so long. There is a mystery, a good one. People close to Kate die, it's a tangled web filled with diversions, lies and horrible truths. That's all I'm going to say. For me this series is more about the Park family than the mysteries solved that is just the bonus. I can't wait to start the next book

Review # 2 was written on 2020-01-02 00:00:00 Marcella Reese A good short Kate Shugak book, that I missed when it was new. Maybe I'd have liked it better then? This one marks the first time she gets it on with Jim Chopin, in a graphic episode. Otherwise, it's a pretty standard Park book -- see the publisher's summary. Another reviewer commented that this one is light on the Alaska stuff. It's here, but not as well-integrated or as intense as in her best books. This one is more a standard murder-mystery set in the Alaska bush. Not that there's anything wrong with that! The book ends well, with one of Kate's suitors out of the picture, and stepson Johnny moving in with Kate for good. 3+ stars
