Dead In The Water by Dana Stabenow
5.0
This is 3rd in the Kate Shugak Investigations series, and one of the things I love most about this series so far (other than the spunky, tough-as-nails Kate) is the originality of the storylines/plots.
This outing finds Kate undercover working on an Alaskan fishing trawler in the Bering Sea (of all places) attempting to discover what happened to two former crew members and investigating allegations of corruption and fraudulence among the team. And can I just say that the sense of location was so well defined and visceral that not only could I feel the sting of saltwater on my face, but I could also feel the fierceness and determination of how real-life crews must feel as they do this for a living.
Not just for this particular story but for the series as a whole so far, I love the writing, love the cast of characters, love the native Alaskan heritage spotlighted and love the attention to detail/setting.
Just a winner all around for me.
