Synopsis

It's Labor Day in Blewestown, Alaska, and it seems most of the town's thirty-five hundred residents have turned out to celebrate—or to cause trouble. Not Liam Campbell, though. He's checking out the local watering hole in his new town. He's finally made it out of Newenham and is ready for a quiet life with his wife.

He's been in town for about a week when an archaeologist invites him out to his dig site outside of town. He's on the verge of a momentous discovery, one he says will be worth the State Trooper's time.

Two days later, the archaeologist is dead, murdered on his own dig site. And Liam Campbell is about to learn that he's traded one troubled bush town for another.

Goodreads review by Suzanne on February 11, 2021

A great disappointment from one of my favorite authors. Most of the problems with this book result from a skimpy story line...it would have made a great short story. There's simply not enough story to sustain a novel and Stabenow did a lot of things to fill in the text. There's a great deal of infor......more
