Subtle. Straley, you're frickin' subtle. You caught my attention without my even realizing it, sucked me in, then wouldn't let me go until the last page.

Given the number of people who see the state of Alaska from the deck of a cruise ship, it is a setting that is rarely examined by the state's authors. In the hands of a talent like John Straley, it allows us to meet a cross-section of people AND address a few aspects of today's society the author takes us to the impact of those masses of tourists making day-trips to the small towns on the Inside Passage to the morality of assisted suicide.

This is the 5th of 6 novels featuring investigator Cecil Younger. It's a shame that my next book in the series will be my last.

RATING: 5 stars.
