Praise for the Nathan Active series "Robust.... Active maintains his awe of the vast Alaskan tundra, a forbidding region that Jones renders in all its bone-chilling beauty." - The New York Times Book Review "Trroper Active proves such an interesting and likable guide that the selfish reader can't but hope Nathan won't get that Anchorage transfer for at least a few more books." - Wall Street Journal "Jones captures in precise detail... the starkly individual spirit of thi village's collection of characters....His depiction of a freezing world of tarpaper houses and whaling camps is absolutely convincing." - Houston Chronicle, Praise for White Sky, Black Ice "Trooper Active proves such an interesting and likable guide that the selfish reader can't but hope Nathan won't get that Anchorage transfer for at least a few more books." -- The Wall Street Journal "What will keep readers enthralled are cinematic descriptions of the Alaskan wilderness and an unvarnished portrayal of life among the Inupiat . . . It's a harsh existence, but one that Jones infuses with warmth, humanity and not a little magic. I can't wait for Nathan Active's next adventure." -- Chicago Tribune "You can feel the bite of the west wind that comes screaming across the Alaska tundra and sense the isolation of the Inupiat Eskimos who live in this desolate part of the far north." -- The New York Times Book Review "Active's struggle between the cultures of the colonized (and his own internalized prejudice) and the colonizer provides an interesting twist to White Sky, Black Ice , a mystery steeped in land and culture." -- The Bloomsbury Review Praise for the Nathan Active mysteries "Robust . . . Active maintains his awe of the vast Alaskan tundra, a forbidding region that Jones renders in all its bone-chilling beauty." -- The New York Times Book Review "Jones captures in precise detail . . . The starkly individual spirit of thi village's collection of characters . . . His depiction of a freezing world of tarpaper houses and whaling camps is absolutely convincing." -- Houston Chronicle, Praise for the Nathan Active series "Robust.... Active maintains his awe of the vast Alaskan tundra, a forbidding region that Jones renders in all its bone-chilling beauty." -- The New York Times Book Review "Trroper Active proves such an interesting and likable guide that the selfish reader can't but hope Nathan won't get that Anchorage transfer for at least a few more books." -- Wall Street Journal "Jones captures in precise detail... the starkly individual spirit of thi village's collection of characters....His depiction of a freezing world of tarpaper houses and whaling camps is absolutely convincing." -- Houston Chronicle

Synopsis
Alaska State Trooper Nathan Active must figure out what connects a death on a remote Arctic lake with a year-old fatal plane crash in the Brooks Range and a fire at the Chukchi Recreation Center that killed eight people, including the town's basketball star. The case turns out to involve a lucrative polar bear poaching operation and the intense bond between a brother and sister from the village of Cape Goodwin. The heart of the matter, he discovers, is a dead woman whose killer remembers her as having a mouth so sweet it was like kissing a Hershey bar'.', The first Nathan Active mystery Born to a poor Inupiat girl in Chukchi, Alaska, north of the Arctic Circle, State Trooper Nathan Active was adopted and raised by a white family in Anchorage. Now, an unwelcome job reassignment has returned him to the stark, beautiful landscape of poverty-stricken Chukchi. Two suspicious suicides in the span of a week and rumors of trouble in the village and at the local copper mine lead Active to believe there is a killer at large. As a nalauqmiiyaaq , or someone regarded by the community as "halfwhite," he must fight for every clue before the killer strikes again.

It’s even better than described, was listed as used but is in mint condition. It’s a relatively hard to get item and I’m very grateful I was able to find one in such good condition for such a great price!
