KATE SHUGAK is a native Aleut working as a private investigator in
Alaska. She's 5 foot 1 inch tall, carries a scar that runs from ear
to ear across her throat and owns half-wolf, half-husky dog named
Mutt. Resourceful, strong-willed, defiant, Kate is tougher than your
average heroine - and she needs to be to survive the worst the
Alaskan wilds can throw at her.
MIDNIGHT COME AGAIN. Kate Shugak is hiding out in Bering, Alaska.
Scarred, scared, and pretending to be someone else... But Alaska
State Trooper Jim Chopin, Kate's best friend, needs her to help him
work a new case. He discovers her hiding out in Bering, a small
fishing village on Alaska's western coast, living and working under
an assumed name - working hard, as 18-hour workdays seem to be her
only justification for getting up in the morning. But before they
can even discuss Kate's last several months, or what Jim is doing
looking for her in Bering, they're up to their eyes in Jim's case,
which is suddenly more complicated - and more dangerous - than they suspect.
