Another good story in the Kate Shugak series.
In this one Kate is confronted by a murder where seemingly everyone she can think of has a motive. Painstaking detective work is required – in which she is aided by Chopper Jim, her main squeeze Jack, and her indominable Aunties.
And as usual, Dana Stabenow expanded my knowledge about Alaska – in this case, about salmon fishing.
Solid 4 stars.
