Mystery
An offbeat, often hilarious crime novel set in the sleepy
Alaskan town of Cold Storage from the Shamus Award winning
author of the Cecil Younger series.
Cold Storage, Alaska, is a remote fishing outpost where
salmonberries sparkle in the morning frost and where you
just might catch a King Salmon if you’re zen enough to wait
for it. Settled in 1935 by Norse fishermen who liked to
skinny dip in its natural hot springs, the town enjoyed
prosperity at the height of the frozen fish boom. But now
the cold storage plant is all but abandoned and the town is
withering. Clive “The Milkman” McCahon returns to his tiny Alaska
hometown after a seven-year jail stint for dealing coke. He
has a lot to make up to his younger brother, Miles, who has
dutifully been taking care of their ailing mother. But Clive
doesn’t realize the trouble he’s bringing home. His vengeful
old business partner is hot on his heels, a stick-in-the-mud
State Trooper is dying to bust Clive for narcotics, and, to
complicate everything, Clive might be going insane—lately,
he’s been hearing animals talking to him. Will his arrival
in Cold Storage be a breath of fresh air for the sleepy,
depopulated town? Or will Clive’s arrival turn the whole
place upside down?
