About this audiobook
In the latest thriller in the Edgar Award-winning Kate Shugak series, the intrepid Alaskan detective investigates the murder of a man whom nobody even knew was missing. Although everyone knew town handyman Len Dreyer, he was also a mystery. When Dreyer's body turns up, frozen for months in the path of a receding glacier with a shotgun hole in his chest, State Trooper Jim Chopin asks Kate to help him investigate Dreyer's background in hopes of finding a motive for his murder. She takes the case in order to provide for the teenaged boy now in her care, a constant reminder of his father, her dead lover. Little does she imagine that in trying to provide for him she may be putting him in the path of danger.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Another fine story in the Kate Shugak series. A body is found floating in glacial meltwater and a few more occur before Kate figures it out. The book has all the familiar characters, plus a few more. Chopper Jim's emotional outburst broke the cast I had in mind for him: intractable, inscrutable, solid cop...not so much. If I could choose a theme, it would be: "Alaskan winters can drive you nuts"...another fine portayal of Alaska's culture that us Outsiders just don't get.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was my first Kate Shugak mystery and of course since I was reading smack dab in the middle of the series, I felt completely left out about what's gone on with the characters! But it's definately a series I will come back to in the future.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5When Johnny starts his assigned summer journal, meant to be a simple chronicle of the wildlife he sees around the Park, little does he know that his life is about to be even more complicated than it's already been (and for a fourteen-year-old, he's had some major complications). A frozen stiff - pardon the pun - discovered in a pool of meltwater under a rapidly receding glacier would have been disturbing enough, but the hole blasted through the corpse's chest leaves little room for doubt - it was murder. Called in to investigate by Chopper Jim, Kate quickly learns that the victim had more than a few things to hide. Things heat up quickly after that as sparks fly between Jim & Kate. Arson, family relations of the unpleasant variety, and plenty of Mutt lappings round out the pages.There are a few loose ends that don't get tied up, and I figured out who-dun-it (even if why was a surprise) fairly early on. Perhaps not Stabenow's most riveting work, but I enjoyed the by-play between Jim & Kate anyway.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I like this series. I have not read it in order. Maybe a little sentimental at the end of this one.
