Synopsis

A year after arriving in Benedict, Beth Rivers is feeling very at home in Alaska, even as outsiders are starting to return to enjoy the brief summer perfection. She feels like she’s finally let go of most of her demons. She's even found her father, Eddy Rivers—or, rather, he found her—and she's trying to find the middle ground between anger and forgiveness. One sunny July day, Beth boards a tourist ship to see the glaciers, the main reason visitors venture to the area. But when the captain has to navigate to an island, a bloodied woman is found standing on the shore, waving for help. When she’s brought aboard, she claims she was kidnapped from her home in Juneau three days earlier and that a bear on the island killed her captor. She, however, is unharmed. The woman, Sadie, finds a sympathetic ear in Beth. She tells her that she’s been in Juneau under witness protection and that the Juneau police don’t like her. When another kidnapping occurs, Beth and Police Chief Gril can’t help but think the two cases are interwoven, though the clues to solving them may be hard to unravel.

Goodreads review by Maxine on December 10, 2023

Lost Hours is the fifth in the Alaska Wild cozy mystery series by Paige Shelton but the first I’ve read. Much of the plot here was directly or indirectly related to events of previous books which could have been confusing. However, Shelton integrated past events in the story in a way that didn’t int......more

Goodreads review by Karen on March 20, 2025

Apparently, this book is part of the author’s Alaska Wild series, the 5th in the series. Which means, people like me, who haven't read 1-4, might be a little bit confused. Who is who and what is what? And…Who can anybody trust? For those who are reading this mystery series for the first time, don’t s......more

Goodreads review by Lauren on December 05, 2023

This is the fifth book in the Alaskan Wild series. I am beyond shocked to have only just heard of this series and must now go back to the start. Beth Rivers is a survivor and sleuth at heart and totally gives off edgy Nancy Drew vibes.......more

The fifth book in Shelton's Alaska Wild series gets off to a quick start, with a bloodied woman screaming for help as a ship approaches the island she's on. She insists that a bear attacked the man who was holding her captive but no bear can be found. She can't remember much because she was drugged......more
