Perfect Storm is the sixth book in the Alaska Wild series. It has two mysteries. Who is killing the off-gridders living near the abandoned Blue Mine? Could it be Bigfoot, or just a man masquerading as a Sasquatch? Will Beth survive the upcoming winter now that she is being stalked again?
Beth lives in remote Benedict, Alaska. She has been there a year initially hiding out from her Missouri kidnapper, Travis, who has since gone to jail. Unfortunately, Travis has escaped. Beth’s friends in Benedict try to protect her but will she ever feel safe again?
The mine mystery is intriguing, if a bit comical with a “Bigfoot” running amok. Unfortunately, the conclusion of the six-book arc of Beth and her stalker was anticlimactic, at best. I really wanted more tension and twists in that part of the story.
Perfect Storm is probably best for readers of at least one of the earlier books in the series just for closure. For readers new to the series, I wouldn’t recommend this book. There are many more thrilling mysteries out there to read. 3 stars.
Thanks to NetGalley and Minotaur Books for providing me with an advanced review copy.
