In Kim Heacox's suspenseful debut novel, Shannon DeShay, a young woman from Alaska discovers a militant plot to destroy an environmental movement and must risk everything to save a wildlife refuge and the man she loves. At the nexus is a real issue: attempts by the petroleum industry--and most of Alaska's political and business leaders--to drill for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. From Anchorage and Alaska's North Slope to Washington D.C. and the halls of Congress, this is a compelling story of intrigue, landscape, and love.
What a book! This author is a poet, philosopher, storyteller and uspense novelist, who has put together a page turner with suspense, intrigue, quotable lines, fine characters, great plot line, romance, adventure, love, beauty. What more could you ask? Oh yes, it also explores a hot topic without preachiness. I absolutely loved this book and recommend it highly --it has universal appeal.
