Book summaryWhen two tourists show up in the Alaskan town where Bailey Lockhart works as a bush pilot, things get difficult. Bailey, an Ingalik Indian and a pilot, discovers that they are really there to pan for gold, which is against the law. In addition, they possess information about Bailey's past that makes her distinctly uncomfortable. Written by a distant relative of Franz Kafka, this novel is an intriguing look at a woman in an unusual situation trying to deal with a crisis in her own life and the life of her town and her people. Media reviews"If the setting is more gripping than the characters here, no matter. How everyone goes about surviving the climate...is more entertaining than the stony heroine's flight from her past....Kimberly Kafka makes Bailey come alive in the cockpit of her red Cessna....But the real story is the sneaky tourists and the criminal elements, human and otherwise, they arouse." |
