Produktbeschreibung
She fled her abuser, but a killer followed her. Paul Kitka likes fast cars, women and his job as a lieutenant in the Alaska State Patrol. He likes living in Talkeetna, a small town full of quirky people he's happy to call friends and neighbors. Life is good. Candace Marshall doesn't know what she likes - being married to an abusive husband stripped her of all personal preferences. But to her surprise, she likes Alaska. She came to Alaska to disappear. She chose Talkeetna, a small, remote town at the base of Mount Denali, to start over with a different name - in a state her husband hates, and the state hates him back. It was her best chance. When Candace finds him dead in her cabin, her first thought is to run again. Who would believe she didn't kill him? Paul Kitka does - reluctantly. But then, who did kill the lobbyist Alaska hates so much? Turns out half of Talkeetna had a reason to kill the man, and everyone is lying to him: Candace, the victim's family and co-workers, and even Paul's friends and neighbors. Now his job is on the line, his town is angry at him, and his partner wants to arrest Candace for murder. But what worries Paul the most is that in a town full of unstable and angry people, the murderer isn't done.

Autorenporträt
L.J. Breedlove is a former journalist writing mysteries and thrillers about what she knows: complicated people, small towns, big cities, cops, reporters, politicians, assorted bad guys. "I write about religion and politics. About race and gender. I believe in the journalism axiom: Comfort the afflicted, and afflict the comfortable. To which the labor organizer Mother Jones was supposed to have added: And in general raise hell. That works for me." L.J. grew up on a cattle ranch and then went to college to be an oceanographer. She decided getting seasick was not a good trait for any oceanographer to have, and discovered journalism instead - a field that liked people who asked questions! As a reporter and editor, she worked in Alaska, Oregon, Idaho, Texas, Washington, D. C. Then she got homesick for the Pacific Northwest and came home to work with college newspapers and teach journalism. She is an over-educated, bleeding heart liberal with a penchant for heroes such as Jack Reacher. She isn't particularly bothered by the inconsistency. You can follow her on Twitter @ljbwrites for her political stuff, or on Facebook at ljbreedlove for her writing life. Best place to find her ? besides a local coffee shop ? is at ljbreedlove.com. You can sign up for her email newsletter there. Or read her blog, snark included, and check out all her books.
