About this audiobook

Alaska State Trooper Alex Jensen is faced with solving the mystery of what became of pilot Norm Lewis, whose plane disappeared six months ago in the vast white wilderness. When Norm's battered plane is found, empty except for the decomposed, bullet-riddled body of an unidentified female, his wife, Rochelle, is shocked and puzzled. Norm is nowhere to be found, and Rochelle, herself a pilot, demands to be included in the search. When the body in the plane turns out to be that of a federal agent who was investigating big-game poachers, the FBI steps in. But it's Alex and Rochelle who go after the killers and put their lives on the line to discover what's behind Norm's disappearance.

"Twice as vivid as Michener's natural ALASKA, at about a thousandth the length." (Washington Post)

    Norm Lewis disappeared in the fall. Now his plane is found in an Alaskan lake off the path of his flight plan, but his body is missing. The body of a woman identified as an undercover fish and wildlife agent is found in the passenger seat. The plane had been shot down, but the autopsy finds she was beaten, likely dying from that, before the gunshot wound occurred. What happened to the pilot? His wife Rochelle flies to the location to try to locate her husband. Trooper Alex Jensen talks Rochelle into going home while they continue to gather evidence. She discovers a break-in at their home. Alex gets an uneasy feeling about the flight she's supposed to be making to take clients hunting, but he figures his remaining questions for her can wait until the next day. When her flight plan is checked, he discovers she was bound for the site the plane went down and was planning to be gone a week. He and his pilot are joined by a man who identifies himself as a colleague of the murdered agent. Alex has some doubts about his identity though. Will they catch the poaching entourage before they end up becoming food for the bears? What an unexpected turn at the end! I enjoyed the setting of this one, but I suspect I enjoyed it more in audio format than I might have in print. I was a little disappointed Jessie didn't figure more prominently in this one, but we got to know Alex a little better in this one.

    It is a good mystery set in the world of Alaskan pilots. The main character is interesting and well-developed. I felt like I had been to Alaska.
