      • content: Stabenow's tales of the Alaskan wilderness are populated with eccentric groups of outsiders and are always full of wry humor and rugged individualism. Whether writing about state trooper Liam Campbell, as here, or the main character of her other excellent series featuring P.I. Kate Shugak (also available from Books On Tape), Stabenow's novels are filled with a strong sense of place. Marguerite Gavin, who narrates both, is an accomplished storyteller whose droll delivery and expert timing wring every ounce of humor and pathos from the clever material. This time around, the investigation of a sixty-year-old crashed WWII army plane, now reemerging from a calving glacier, has Campbell wishing this mystery had been better left to rest. A good sprinkling of Alaskan history, humor, an unfinished love story, and suspense make this a great entertainment value. D.G. (c) AudioFile 2003, Portland, Maine

        Starred review from August 19, 2002
        Sgt. Liam Campbell's fourth outing (following 2000's Nothing Gold Can Stay) finds the Alaska state trooper exploring an old plane crash and a new murder in a story marked by Edgar winner Stabenow's superb depictions of the Alaskan landscape and its willful inhabitants. The discovery of a WWII–era American army plane embedded in the face of a glacier raises a surprising number of questions. And the murder of a feisty, elderly matriarch leads to some surprising revelations about her active life. Having through a misstep in his career landed in the small fishing town of Newenham on the eastern edge of Bristol Bay, Campbell now has a chance to return to Anchorage, but he's not sure he wants to. For one thing, there's his unresolved relationship with pilot Wyanet "Wy" Chouinard, typical of the many intriguingly complex relationships with which the author has filled the plot. The bonds of love, blood ties and friendships play out in convincing and satisfying fashion. Stabenow also laces her story with Alaskan history, from the development spurred by WWII, including the upgrade of the Alaska Railroad and construction of the Alcan Highway, to the halcyon days and more recent decline of the fishing industries. Passionate about his work and perhaps more clear-headed about his professional life than his personal life, Campbell makes an engaging hero, one who bids fair to become as popular as Kate Shugak, the heroine of Stabenow's other, long-running series. (Sept. 3)FYI:The author's most recent Kate Shugak novel is
        A Fine and Bitter Snow (Forecasts, May 27).

shortDescription

"Alaska's finest mystery writer" (Anchorage Daily News) has given readers a hero to cheer for Alaska state trooper Sergeant Liam Campbell is the representative of law and order in the fishing village of Newenham-yet struggles to keep his own life on an even keel. Now, just when his future is starting to heat up, he delves into a case of a downed WW II army plane found mysteriously frozen in a glacier.

Passionate about this work and perhaps more clear-headed about his professional life than his personal life, Campbell makes an engaging hero, one who bids fair to become as popular as Kate Shugak, the heroine of Stabenow's other long-running series."--Publisher's Weekly
