Series: Edie Kiglatuk Mysteries #1 I came across this in my most recent scouring of my library's currently available audiobook offerings although I admit I was mostly looking for audio versions of stuff I had been meaning to read and hadn't gotten around to. The author appears to have done her res...

3.5 of 5 stars I received a copy of this book from the publishers and this is my honest opinion of the book. Edie Kiglatuk is spending the Summer teaching on Ellesmere Island and recovering from events that occurred last year. Hoping for a quieter pace it soon becomes apparent that this isn't to...

It starts off kind of slow, I think to take the time properly introduce the characters, environment, and culture. The narrative pace does eventually pick up and it turns into quite an intriguing my...
