About This Book
She's a savvy investigator with the cool toughness of Sam Spade -- and a smile that could melt a block of ice. Once the star of the Anchorage D.A.'s office, she's gone back to her roots in the far Alaska north. But Kate's taken her talent for detection along... and trouble knows where to find her.
THE DEAD OF WINTER
When a young National Park Ranger disappears during the long Alaskan winter, everyone assumes the cold got him. But when an investigator goes in after him, and never comes out, the weather may not be all that's killing. Or so thinks Kate Shugak. With her Husky-breed Mutt as an ally, she's hunting for answers among the pipeliners, Aleuts, and hardy eccentrics of the rugged American north. But she's heading for thin ice between lies and loyalties ... between justice served and the cold face of murder.
