Though Not Dead by Dana Stabenow, 443 pages


Kate Shugak has been named executor of Old Sam Dementieff's will and one of his last requests to her is "Find my father". During her search, Kate finds her life threatened multiple times. Trying to find Sam's father will also have Kate learning about Sam's background and Alaska's early and turbulent history. Throw in a missing Russian icon and a Dashell Hammett manuscript, and you've got a mystery that has people killing to solve.
I've read all the books in this series (I think this is number 17) and enjoyed them all. Alaska seems to be filled with a ton of interesting characters, at least if these books and Northern Exposure are correct, and they make for a fun story. This is one though that you don't want to read on it's own, you need the back stories from the previous books to make it more understandable.
