Reviews / Votes
Richly nuanced, highly entertaining... The book is sprinkled with wit, studded with exquisite descriptions of the rugged landscape, and filled with opinionated and endearing characters... The dialogue is smart, authentic, and reminiscent of Elmore Leonard' * Publishers Weekly * Maintains Stabenow's reputation for concise prose, pithy dialogue, full bodied characters, and intriguing plotting. Crime fiction doesn't get much better than this * Booklist * A clever, colourful, credible tale * Literary Review * While Stabenow's plots are always neat and clever, it is the evocation of the northernmost US state and the way in which people adapt to its harsh environment that makes these books memorable * Literary Review *More details
