Whisper to the Blood (Kate Shugak Mysteries) (Kate Shugak Novel)

by Dana Stabenow (Author)

Synopsis

Inside Alaska's biggest national park, surrounding the town of Niniltna, a gold mining company has started buying up land. The residents of the Park are uneasy. But gold is up to nine hundred dollars an ounce is the refrain of Talia Macleod, the popular Alaskan skiing champ the company hired to improve their relations with Alaskans. And she promises much needed jobs to the locals. But before she can make her way to every village in the area to make her case at town meetings and village breakfasts, there are two murders - one a long-standing mine opponent, and Ms. Macleod herself. Between that and a series of attacks on snow mobilers up the Kanuyaq River, not to mention the still-open homicide of Park villain Louis Deem last year, part-time P.I. and newly elected chairman of the Niniltna Native Association Kate Shugak has her hands very much full. Following up the most successful Kate Shugak novel to date, A Deeper Sleep , the unputdownable Whisper To The Blood promises to thoroughly delight fans but also continue to build Stabenow's audience.
