Einleitungssatz
As the sun went down behind a western stand of trees, staining the clear sky the brilliant fuchsias and golds that are often a part of fall evenings in south-central Alaska, the breeze, sharp with a hint of frost, stirred itself into a gust of wind that whistled around the eves and tugged a flight of fluttering dark yellow leaves from a tall stand of birch, sending them swirling through the air like a flock of small voiceless birds.

This is my first book that I have read of Sue Henry's. The writing is good, plotting is superb. I will continue to read her books. This book is the first one in a long time that actually got me invovled with the characters. Although this book is not perfect, the writing and story is good enough to always keep you turning the page.

This is the second book I have read by Sue Henry, the first being "Murder on the Iditarod Trail." The thing I loved about this book was, as another reviewer has mentioned, getting the inside look at how Jessie Arnold lives the 'simple life' in her two-room log cabin in Alaska. It is a fascinating life that heroine Jessie Arnold lives, whose fictitious lifestyle I envy.
As with Henry's other work, the word images are descriptively vivid and make you feel like you are in Alaska. The novel starts out with describing Jessie's life in her cabin, running her dog kennels, and then moves to a remote island off Alaska where she is stalked by a killer during a storm. I thoroughly enjoyed this novel and will definitely reread it again.
However, I have to take one star away due to Henry's use of unnecessary profanity throughout the novel, which really detracts from the beauty of it. Ms. Henry (and other readers) may feel that she is only adding 'reality' to the 'evil' characters by adding vulgar profanity into many sentences they utter; however, this only serves to detract from the beauty of the work.
This novel would make a great TV movie as did her first novel; where is Hollywood?

I am a great fan of Sue Henry and could't wait to read her 5th book. All her other books kept getting better and better. This one just does not have the mystery and smooth writing of her other books. In fact, I found this one rather boring and felt Ms. Henry was reaching for something that was not there. I can only hope her next book gets back into the beautiful discription of Alaska and has a better believable mystery.

Deadfall falls flat.
I have always enjoyed Sue Henry's books, but this one leaves me feeling puzzled. I am one of those people who gets frightened in a movie when somebody pops out of a closet. Lesen Sie weiter...
