A Taint in the Blood by Dana Stabenow
In Dana Stabenow's strongest novel to date, Charlotte Mauravieff hires Aleutian P.I. Kate Shugak to clear her mother's name. Twenty years ago, her mother was convicted of murder, of setting fire to the family home while her two sons were inside. One died, and one narrowly escaped. Charlotte has always believed in her innocence, though the mother herself accepted the verdict and the life sentence without protest. Now she is terminally ill, and Charlotte wants her free. As Kate begins an investigation, the mother refuses to cooperate, but soon it seems she isn't the only one who wants to leave the past in the past.
Dana Stabenow was born in Anchorage and raised on 75-foot fish tender in the Gulf of Alaska. She knew there was a warmer, drier job out there somewhere and after having a grand old time working in the Prudhoe Bay oilfields on the North Slope of Alaska, making an obscene amount of money and going to Hawaii a lot, found it in writing. Her first crime fiction novel, A Cold Day for Murder, won an Edgar award, her first thriller, Blindfold Game, hit the New York Times bestseller list, and her twenty-ninth novel and twentieth entry in the Kate Shugak series, Bad Blood, was released in February 2013.
