Less Than a Treason

Description

When people vanish across Alaska—from mountain footraces and fishing boats to remote flights—their disappearances are often treated as tragic accidents or inevitable risks of the frontier. But a troubling pattern draws attention to a case that reaches far beyond the wilderness, forcing investigators to confront the possibility of deliberate violence. As Kate Shugak struggles to recover from her own injuries and isolation, she is pulled toward a mystery rooted in Alaska’s stark landscapes, tight-knit communities, and dangerous secrets. Dana Stabenow combines atmospheric suspense, sharp character work, and a deeply grounded sense of place in this gripping installment of the Kate Shugak series.
