Two friends of Kate's grandmother are brutally attacked in their cabin on their eco-retreat - as Kate investigates she once more finds out that the actions of the present often hinge on the decisions of the past. Well done book, critical character development for long term fans.

I don't usually like these small town cozy mysteries but this one involves Alaska which totally fascinates me. It's a little light on the murder investigation but Kate Shugak and Jim Shopan are very interesting characters and the interplay between them is violent yet comical. I didn't like Ethan, a married man who just wanted to get a little (from Kate). I did like Johnny though (the son of Kate's former lover). It will be interesting to see where Ms. Stabenow takes his story.
This is book 12 in the series and the first I've read. I will definitely have to start at the beginning and see why Kate turned out the way she did. She's interesting but seems to be a little bitter (hence the title?) too.
