Set in Alaska, bestselling author Dana Stabenow's novels combine a lush and evocative portrait of life in the frozen north with taut suspense. In this novel, Aleutian PI Kate Shugak investigates a murder that is connected to a conservationist's attempts to stop an oil company moving into the area. Two women have been savagely attacked. One is dead by the time the authorities arrive, the other clings to life by a thread. The obvious suspect is a man found near the scene. A man clutching a knife, covered in the victims' blood, claiming to have lost all memory of the last twenty-four hours; it looks like an open and shut case. And no-one thinks twice about the death of a man living alone. An obvious suicide. He even leaves a note. Unfortunately his final words are a confession: 'I killed her'. One crime, two suspects. And Kate Shugak thinks that someone, somewhere, is getting away with murder.
