New York Times bestselling author Dana Stabenow's latest finds Kate Shugak entangled in a bitter tribal rivalry and murder
One hundred years of bad blood between the Alaskan villages of Kushtaka and Kuskulana come to a boil when the body of a young Kushtaka ne'er-do-well is found wedged in a fish wheel. Sergeant Jim Chopin's prime suspect is a Kuskulana man who is already in trouble in both villages for falling in love across the river. But when the suspect disappears, members of both tribes refuse to speak to Jim. When a second murder that looks suspiciously like payback occurs, Jim has no choice but to call in Kate Shugak for help. This time, though, her Park relationships may not be enough to sort out the truth hidden in the tales of tragedy and revenge.

From Booklist
*Starred Review* In the twentieth novel in the Kate Shugak series, the part-time private investigator teams with her friend and occasional lover, Alaska State Trooper Jim Chopin, to try to solve the murder of a young man. It’s a complicated situation. The murdered man lived in the village of Kushtaka, and the prime suspect lives in the neighboring village of Kuskulana. The two villages have been bitter rivals for a long time (Kushtaka is a traditional Alaskan village; Kuskulana is more modern and more prosperous), and the elders of neither village seem interested in helping Jim and Kate get to the bottom of things. Jim, a representative of the state, is counting on Kate’s tribal connections to help smooth the investigation, but Kate, a native Aleut, soon discovers her connections don’t seem to mean much here. Long-time devotees of this popular series will devour the book in a single sitting, and if there happen to be any fans of Alaska-set mystery fiction—books by John Straley, for example, or Sue Henry—who have not yet made the acquaintance of Kate Shugak, they should change that sooner rather than later. --David Pitt
Review
“Entertaining 19th novel featuring the brash, fearless PI [Kate Shugak]…The book sparkles with energy and wit, and packs an unexpected punch.” ―Publishers Weekly on RESTLESS IN THE GRAVE
“A combination of fast and furious adventure and the beauty and complexity of Alaska.” ―Kirkus Reviews on RESTLESS IN THE GRAVE
“In her newest Kate Shugak thriller, Stabenow proves she's as comfortable dealing with Alaskan history as she is portraying Kate's insular contemporary world and the harsh, beautiful, changing landscape she and her extended family call home… A stand-out entry in a consistently good series.” ―Booklist (starred review) on THOUGH NOT DEAD
“The latest in Dana Stabenow's robust series [is] her most far-reaching Shugak story yet, ambitiously incorporating some of Alaska's colorful history.” ―Seattle Times on THOUGH NOT DEAD

"Alaska's answer to Tony Hillerman."―Rocky Mountain News
The villages of Kushtaka and Kuskulana sit across the river from each other, but Kuskulana's always thrived while Kushtaka is slowly dying out. One hundred years of bad blood between the communities threaten to come to a boil when the body of a young Kushtaka ne'er-do-well is found dead―and questions of love, loyalty, and revenge rise to the surface. Could this one, unexplained death ignite an all-out war? When a second murder that looks suspiciously like payback occurs, the escalating enmity can no longer be ignored. Now it's up to private investigator Kate Shugak, along with Sergeant Jim Chopin, to find the truth about what happened…while a killer remains at large. And is on their trail.
"Entertainment and suspense of a high order."―Publishers Weekly

Never thought I would write a bad Dana Stabenow review!
By Emily07
First, let me say I love most of Dana Stabenow books, and especially the Kate Shugak books.
This book is a little flat, and is 75 pages or so shorter than most of her books. I never pay full-price for books under 300 pages, and after this one, I never will again.
Kates character was almost a "Stepford Kate", and there were some inconsistencies in the book that absolutely drove me crazy.
Toward the beginning, some tourists find Kates homestead and want to know where the gold mine is, and she sends them to Ninilitna, which she says is 50 miles away, when in fact the other books say it is only 25 miles.
She talks about Kates birthday being on the day of the great earthquake in 1964, which would make her 49 friggin years old, instead of the 37-39 years old she actually is. I like Bernie, I love Katya and the Aunties and I love Dan. Where were they?? Where is the fried bread?? Where is the everyday life in the Park??
And, I was very very very disappointed in the ending. Is this like the whole Jack situation, where they talk about a more permanent relationship and then someone dies (Sorry, spoiler alert) ?? If you end it this way, it will be the last Dana Stabenow book I ever read.

Disappointment
By Anonymous Reviewer
Oh dear!
What's up with Bad Blood?
Is Dana Stabenow ill and not up to writing a good story?
Somebody else said it read like it had been "phoned in" and I'd say that about sums it up. Surprised and disappointed, to say the least.
It's one thing to master the art of writing, and another to write an overly formulaic book that lacks soul, which is what the author has delivered.
I might have forgiven the lack of including many of the usual characters that inhabit her stories, but I won't forgive the sloppy, lazy ending. Was it meant to make us pine for the next book, or was it that the author had something more important that she needed to do and didn't have time to finish up.
I have the entire Kate Shugak series and have read them multiple times, and a `little bit of Kate' is better than none, but sorry to say, this book was a huge disappointment.

Only for true fans (who will still be annoyed)
By A. Miller
If I didn't "know" the characters in this book, it would have been flat and boring - just a whodunit crime with the ONLY interesting character being the scenic descriptions of Alaska. I recently recommended the Kate Shugak series to a friend, but sure hope she doesn't pick this book up first. It has little of the fun, toughness, and humor of the previous books. There is a major cliffhanger at the end -- a cheap trick for a series writer. It's like the publisher knew this was a dud, so made the author put in a cliffhanger so people will buy the next book. The writing is so flat that I didn't believe any of the story. The romantic romp in the middle was a complete re-hash of previous books (some of the same jokes even), but was out of place here and rang false. Again, it's like the publisher said "sex it up," so the author threw in some old work. I read the "Stepford Kate" comments in other reviews - I agree.
