Description

From New York Times bestselling author Marc Cameron,a thrill ride into the savage beauty of Alaska – where the wilderness is deadlier than any killer and a Tlingit girl's cold case murder makes even US Marshal Arliss Cutter’s blood run cold.

"Cameron’s novels hook you from the first line, cement your eyes to the page, and grip your heart in a vice. I can’t think of another writer whose work I admire more." —WILLIAM KENT KRUEGER

"A double-barreled blast of action, narrative, and impossible-to-fake authenticity.” —CJ BOX

U.S. Marshal Arliss Cutter is a born tracker. Raised in the Florida swamplands, he honed his skills in the military, fought in the Middle East, and worked three field positions for Marshal Services. When it comes to tracking someone down—or taking someone out—Cutter’s the best. But his newest assignment is taking him out of his comfort zone to southeast Alaska. Cold, dark, uninhabited forests often shrouded in fog. And it’s the kind of case that makes his blood run cold . . . the shocking murder of a Tlingit Native girl.

But the murder is just the beginning. Now, three people have disappeared on Prince of Wales Island. Two are crew members of the reality TV show, Fishwives. Cutter’s job is to find the bodies, examine the crew’s footage for clues, and track down the men who killed them. But it won’t be easy, because the whole town is hiding secrets, every trail is a dead end—and the hunter becomes the hunted...

“Looking for authentic action, suspense, drama, and mystery? Look no further than U.S. Marshals Service veteran Marc Cameron whose thrillers capture the visceral nature of life in the trenches as only one who has lived it truly can.”—JACK CARR

“Cameron’s books are riveting page-turners.” —MARK GREANEY

Even when I was working, I couldn’t wait to get back to this book to find out what was going to happen to the characters so many twist and turns!! I really enjoyed the fact that the book wasn’t trashy so many books you read these days are just trashy almost like you’re reading soft porn. That’s great for some folks, but some of us would like a good read without all the bad language and the filth.! This was well written and the author did not have to use all of that to try to get a good rating! That to me makes for an excellent author!

Loved the hardened chivalry that Arliss portrays in this book. The story kept me engaged and wondering where the next turn would take the crew involved. If you like action and suspense, this is a solid read. The bouncing back and forth between characters in the chapters left me a bit confused at first, but ultimately this was a good read that kept me hooked. I will be continuing on in this series.
Great story

Very different than 90% of books written. The Alaska Native and lower 48 states were exciting and interesting. The characters were very believable and I loved the ending.
Just okay

I mostly enjoyed the story. I was distracted and annoyed by a few spelling/grammar errors, however: “conscious” instead of “conscience;” “penned-up” instead of “pent-up;” and “guy’s” instead of “guys” or “guys’”—I don’t remember. I was so put off by these errors on the part of the author and editors that I started looking for that sort of thing instead of paying attention to the story. I wish the characters had been more developed; they all seemed superficial. The relationships among them were only hinted at (like with Lola and her husband”—what’s up with that? Either explain it fully or don’t mention it.
Stunning
