Restless Kate Shugak Novel (Kate Shugak Novels Book 19)

Renowned New York Times bestselling author Dana Stabenow returns with her most outstanding novel yet, Restless in the Grave, featuring the captivating collaboration of her two beloved characters – Aleut private investigator Kate Shugak and Alaska state trooper Liam Campbell – in the same story for the first time.

The novel's intriguing narrative begins with the fiery crash of Alaska aviation entrepreneur Finn Grant's Piper Super Cub, which was the result of Engine sabotage. Virtually everyone in southwestern Alaska, including his betrayed wife, his bullied children, and Liam's wife, bush pilot Wyanet Chouinard, has a motive for this tragic incident. Faced with limited options, Liam turns to his former mentor, Niniltna post commander Sergeant Jim Chopin, for assistance, who promptly brings Kate onto the case.

Working undercover as a waitress at Bill's Bar and Grill, Kate's investigation reveals that Grant's business had experienced meteoric growth over the past two years. After acquiring the closed Air Force base south of town from the federal government at a bargain price, he became a fixed-base operator running his fishing, hunting, and flight-seeing business, servicing planes flying through the area, and most intriguingly and lucratively, entering the air freight business. However, the nature of the freight he was transporting and its destination remained a mystery.

Kate's pursuit of the answers involves her in her most challenging case to date, one that begins with murder and quickly expands into a much larger conspiracy ranging from the darkest family secrets to treason and beyond. As she delves deeper into the investigation, Kate uncovers a web of intrigue and deceit that tests the limits of her investigative skills and personal resilience.

Restless in the Grave is a treat for fans of Dana Stabenow's acclaimed and award-winning series, offering a captivating and suspenseful narrative that seamlessly blends the talents of her two most beloved characters. The collaboration between Kate Shugak and Liam Campbell adds a new layer of complexity and intrigue to the story, as they navigate the treacherous waters of their investigation and confront the forces that threaten to unravel the very fabric of their community.

With her masterful storytelling and keen eye for detail, Stabenow once again delivers a gripping and multilayered mystery that will keep readers enthralled from the first page to the last. Restless in the Grave is a must-read for fans of high-stakes thrillers, complex character dynamics, and the stunning natural beauty of Alaska, solidifying Stabenow's reputation as a true master of the genre.
