<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Liam hasn't even formally started his new job as an Alaska state trooper when trouble starts. An archaeologist, Erik, has made a discovery, and its connection to native Alaskan tribes could shut down drilling work--the source of income for many local residents. Just days later, the skeleton of a boy is discovered on Erik's dig site; then Erik's body is found mere feet from where the skeleton was found. With the help of his new assistant, the new friends he's already made in town, and his beloved wife, Liam investigates, but the case could turn his small Alaskan town upside down."--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Newenham is an ice-bound bush town with a six-bed jail, a busted ATM and a saloon that does double-duty as a courtroom. It's a wide-enough patch to warrant a state police presence, though, and Trooper Liam Campbell is it. Campbell has been exiled from Anchorage to Newenham in disgrace, busted down from sergeant to trooper in the aftermath of a mistake that cost a family of five their lives, to spend some time in the wilderness. Campbell didn't expect the job to be simple and it hasn't. From the (literally) cutthroat business of commercial fishing, to the paranoid misanthropy of the back-country prospector, to drug dealers, serial killers, and caches of forgotten war gold, he has had his hands full. Now he has a dead archaeologist, murdered at their own dig site, who claimed to be on the verge of a momentous discovery. Fans of the icy frontier, of mystery tinged with a frisson of romance, of laconic lawmen with good intentions, of tai chi and small aircraft piloting take note: Liam Campbell is for you.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"The vivid descriptions, rich characterizations, and compelling plot that distinguish [Stabenow's] Kate Shugak books, with the added advantage of extra sex appeal." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Dana Stabenow</b>, born in Alaska and raised on a 75-foot fish tender, is the author of the award-winning, bestselling Kate Shugak series.
