3rd Kate Shugak mystery. The scene: a crabbing boat on the Bering Sea in October. Um...no thank you! But, Kate is investigating the mysterious deaths of 2 previous crew members. There is mysticism, drugs, Aleutian history, storms, pirates, and much more. Don‘t miss this series! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Megabooks I am such a Deadliest Catch fan. The Bering Sea looks so cold and dangerous. 3y
TrishB It‘s a great series 👍🏻 think I‘m up to 5 or 6! 3y
Suelizbeth @Megabooks and this book delivers a chilling description of pulling up crab pots in a storm. Nowhere I‘d ever want to be! ❄️ ⛈ 3y

Kate Shugak goes undercover on a crab fishing vessel in the Aleutian islands to investigate the disappearance of two members of the crew.

As someone who gets seasick easily, I found this one a bit too graphic in its description of the lives of the crab fishing crews. The author says she spent five years in her childhood on a crab fishing vessel with her mother. I just cannot, will not try to, imagine it.

Although there was a crime at the heart of this, most of the story was the Alaskan weather, countryside and history! I did disappear down the internet rabbit hole a couple of times to read a bit more. I had no idea the Japanese actually landed on some Alaskan islands, not just Pearl Harbour in the 2nd WW.

DivineDiana I had no idea either! 😲 5y
GingerAntics This sounds interesting. 5y
Tamra Yes! And several islands were evacuated and the natives were displaced for a few years, without adequate care & provision. You can imagine what they returned to when they finally made it home given soldiers had been stationed on some. 5y

inthegreensandblues I love it when books inspire me to google things while I'm reading. 😄 5y
TrishB @Tamra that was the background to the families! So interesting to read the info when you have no idea. 5y
TrishB @DivineDiana @GingerAntics @inthegreensandblues it was really interesting to follow up! 5y
GingerAntics This idea of reading and then digging deeper, following up with additional research sounds right up my ally. 5y
TrishB @GingerAntics 👍🏻 I love doing that too. 5y
