Blood Will Tell by Dana Stabenow

It's a crisp, snowless October in The Park. The root cellar is full, the cordwood is stacked, the oil drums are filled and there's a freshly-butchered moose in her cache, but Kate Shugak must leave her cabin and head into the chaos of Anchorage, where the Alaska Federation of Natives' annual convention is being held. Why? Because board members of the Niniltna Native Association have been dying.board members who just happened to oppose a lucrative new development project. If it's just a coincidence, perhaps Kate will find nothing, but this is Alaska--politics and profit are constantly at odds with conservation and traditional practices, and anyone looking too closely is likely to discover something unsavory.

Dana Stabenow was born on Anchorage and reared in the Gulf of Alaska on a 75-foot fish tender. She knew there had to be a better, warmer job out there, and she found it in writing. Her first novel, A Cold Day for Murder, was nominated for an Edgar Award. Blindfold Game, her debut thriller, was a New York Times bestseller.
