Synopsis

Spring has arrived in The Park. The snow is melting, the birds are singing, the wolves are frolicking... and somewhere, in a lonely cabin along the road to Niniltna, a man's sanity is breaking. Soon, nine people will be dead, seemingly the victims of a random act of violence—until a routine ballistics test reveals that one of the murders was anything but random. Once again the Anchorage DA's department must turn to their former investigator, Kate Shugak, to uncover a calculating killer, hiding in plain sight. The second novel in Stabenow's Edgar Award-winning series of Alaskan mysteries, A Fatal Thaw vividly captures life in America's last frontier, filled with unique hardships, quirks and rewards.
