Stan Jones, Patricia Watts

Police Chief Nathan Active investigates a plane crash out in Alaska’s Big Empty—and what he finds there casts suspicion of murder on several locals in his small town of Chukchi.

Evie Kavoonah, a young mother-to-be, and her fiancé, Dr.
Todd Brenner, are on a flight over the Brooks Range when
their bush plane runs out of gas and hits a ridge, instantly
killing them both. Chukchi police chief Nathan Active doubts
he’ll find anything amiss when his close friend, Cowboy
Decker, asks him to look into the possibility of foul play.
Evie was like a daughter to Cowboy, who trained her to fly,
and he insists there’s no way his protégée made a fatal
mistake that day. Nathan reluctantly plays along and
discovers that Cowboy’s instincts are correct—the
malfunction that led to the crash was carefully planned, and
several people in the village have motives for targeting the
pair.

Meanwhile, Nathan’s wife, Gracie, is pregnant, but so
scarred by memories of domestic abuse that she isn’t sure
she should have the baby. Nathan must support her and their
adopted daughter, Nita, while managing an increasingly
complex and dangerous murder case.
