Fans eagerly anticipate the continuation of this captivating series, as Publishers Weekly expresses their hope for its enduring success. While the distinction between right and wrong may be blurred, there exist zones governed by specific laws that must be respected. As the year comes to a close and an off-and-on blizzard persists, isolating Alaska from the rest of the world, reports emerge of a plane crash in the Quilak mountains. With the National Transportation Safety Board unable to reach the crash site, ex-Trooper Jim Chopin is reluctantly pulled out of retirement to investigate. His mission includes identifying the aircraft, recovering the bodies, and unraveling the mystery behind the missing flight. However, Jim's task takes an unexpected turn when he discovers two children, who are mute, among the survivors. Meanwhile, Private Investigator Kate Shugak receives an unexpected and unwelcome accusation from beyond the grave, which holds the potential to reshape the landscape of the Park forever. In a genre dominated by sugary female sleuths, Kate Shugak emerges as a refreshing and captivating protagonist, as acclaimed by the New York Times and Booklist.
