Eighteen months ago, Aleut Kate Shugak quit her job investigating sex crimes for the Anchorage DA’s office and retreated to her father’s homestead in a national park in the interior of Alaska. But the world has a way of beating a path to her door, however remote. In the middle of one of the bitterest Decembers in recent memory ex-boss — and ex-lover — Jack Morgan shows up with an FBI agent in tow.

Too many mispronunciations...
Revisado: 02-17-23
I have read and loved the entire Kate Shugak series many times. Listening to all of them was very enjoyable too, except for the jarring mispronunciation of some of the real Alaskan towns and villages like Tok! Really? The narrator couldn't or wouldn't take the time to ask the author how to say it right? Sadly. the entire Audible series is fraught with mispronunciations.

In Alaska, people disappear every day. In Aleut detective Kate Shugak's Park, they've been disappearing a lot lately. Hikers head into the wilderness unprepared and get lost. Miners quit without notice at the busy Suulutaq Mine. Suicides leave farewell notes and vanish. Not only are Park rats disappearing at an alarming rate, but so is life in the Park as Kate knows it.

Slow and slower until the last few chapters.

Too many mispronunciations...
Revisado: 02-17-23
I've read all of Dana Stabenow's Kate Shugak series and Liam Campbell series and enjoyed every one immensely. I have lived in Alaska for decades. When I first arrived in 1980, I struggled with the strange names of places, and still have difficulty. So I do empathize with the narrator, but I wish she had at least done some homework or consulted with the author on how to say some of the obviously foreign-looking words. Her mangled pronunciations of many of the nonfictional places were very off-putting and distracting. Glaring examples are: Tok - pronounced toke, not talk. Valdez - pronounced valdeeez, not valdez. Kenai - pronounced keen-eye, not k-neye. There are more, but I've made my point.
