Village in the dark / by Yamashita, Iris,author.;
"Detective Cara Kennedy thought she'd lost her husband and son in an accident, but harrowing evidence has emerged that points to murder-and she will stop at nothing to find the truth in this riveting mystery from the author of City Under One Roof. On a frigid February day, Anchorage Detective Cara Kennedy stands by the graves of her husband and son, watching as their caskets are raised from the earth. It feels sacrilegious, but she has no choice. Aaron and Dylan disappeared on a hike a year ago, their bones eventually found and buried. But shocking clues have emerged that foul play was involved, potentially connecting them to a string of other deaths and disappearances. Somehow tied to the mystery is Mia Upash, who grew up in an isolated village called Unity, a community of women and children in hiding from abusive men. Mia never imagined the trouble she would find herself in when she left home to live in Man's World. Although she remains haunted by the tragedy of what happened to the man and the boy in the woods, she has her own reasons for keeping quiet. Aided by police officer Joe Barkowski and other residents of Point Mettier, Cara's investigation will lead them on a dangerous path that puts their lives and the lives of everyone around them in mortal jeopardy"--

The hunt / by Taylor, Z. W.,author.;
"She survived the bite, but can she survive her beast? No one thought Charlotte would make it through the harrowing transformation to become a shifter after she was attacked by werewolves in the Alaskan woods. They underestimated her. Now, to earn a place in this hidden world, she has to prove her worth to the whole pack. So Charlotte chooses to become a tracker, despite the misgivings of her surly mentor, Levi, and the rigorous training that ends in a dangerous hunt. So what if she still needs to figure out how to control her inner wolf? The hunt takes place deep in the wilderness, where an ancient evil lurks in a forbidden section of the forest. Charlotte will be tested as she learns to work with other members of the pack--even when they don't want her there--and to tame the beast inside her. But this is her shot at a new start ... and it's a matter of life and death. Whatever dark secrets she uncovers, if Charlotte is going to survive, it's time to stop running away and become the hunter."--Back cover.

"A stranded detective tries to solve a murder in a tiny Alaskan town where everyone winters in the same high-rise building, in this gripping debut by Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Iris Yamashita. When a local teenager discovers a severed hand and foot washed up on the shore of the small town of Point Mettier, Alaska, Cara Kennedy is on the case. A detective from Anchorage, she has her own reasons for investigating the possible murder in this isolated place, which can be accessed only by a tunnel. After an avalanche causes the tunnel to close indefinitely, Cara is stuck among the odd and suspicious residents of the town--all 205 of whom live in the same high-rise building and are as icy as the weather. Cara teams up with Point Mettier police officer Joe Barkowski, but before long the investigation is upended by a gang from a nearby reservation who are seeking shelter from the snowstorm. Cara soon discovers that everyone in this town is keeping secrets. If there is anything as elusive as the residents themselves, it's answers"--

One snowy night / by Griffin, Patience.;
Sweet Home, Alaska, was once a thriving, idyllic town, where A Stone's Throw Hardware and Haberdashery and the Sisterhood of the Quilt were the cornerstones of the community.

After the tragic accident that took her sister's life, Hope McKnight discovered she was pregnant, and gave up her dreams of college to raise her daughter. When Donovan Stone returns to sell his family's properties and to cut final ties with Sweet Home, he's shocked to find Hope still there--and a single mother. The pull between Hope and Donovan is as powerful as ever. But so are the secrets and lies stemming from that long-ago tragedy. Will they be able to overcome the past, or will the heartbreak of bygone days destroy their love again?
