The Angels Will Not Care by John Straley

jmeston's review against another edition

4.0

I haven't read this author for years. This one was pub'd in 2000. I have a little catching up to do. It's a detective novel series set in Sitka Alaska. The first book, The Woman Who Married A Bear, broke my heart in a good way. This one mostly takes place on a cruise ship. I liked it a great deal. There is poetry and alienation and sweetness. Even if it's quite a stretch to think that an 8,000 person village needs a private detective.

Fun book to read after just going on a cruise to Alaska. Purchased in Sitka, Alaska, home of Straley. This was the first book that I read of Straley's and I look forward to reading more.
