Alaska's sublime wilderness is the canvas for this tenth installment about the doughty musher Jessie Arnold. As Jessie recovers from knee surgery, a friend invites her to help out at the Iditarod booth at the Alaska State Fair. But the pastoral dream of the village fair is shattered when a body is found floating facedown in a pond on the fairgrounds and to top it off, Jessie's beloved lead husky, Tank, goes missing. Soon Jessie is chasing and being chased by a killer who uses the wilds of Alaska as the tool of his dark devices. Henry's compelling characters and lovable dogs warm up the stark and dangerous landscape, as hunter and hunted careen toward their fateful meeting in this fast-paced adventure."Twice as vivid as Michener's natural Alaska, at about a thousandth the length."—Washington Post Book World

"Liked this one especially with the change in story telling style. I also really liked the new characters thrown in to the mix. It is hard to believe that #6 through #10 in the Alex Jensen & Jessie Arnold series happens in less than a year." — Nicole (4 out of 5 stars)

" Mystery taking place in Alaska along the Iditarod trail. "
" I liked this book for the middle school classroom. It had enough intrigue to keep the children interested. I was also impressed with the use of flashback in the novel. Great teaching book! "
" I found the character who constantly (and unnecessarily) uses "big words" a bit forced, but otherwise it was good for a quick not-too-suspenseful read. I'll read some more books by this author and see how it goes. "
