Alaska bush pilot Alex Price was content with his day job flying between the villages of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta, until an urgent call from his best friend, the elegant novice bar owner Renaldo, brought him into 1970s Anchorage and danger. Alaska hovered on the edge of the Age of Big Oil. The smell of money was in the air, and like the smell of blood, it drew predators from far away. Renaldo sent the men offering "insurance"—or else—packing and bleeding, and now his life was in danger. The embattled Anchorage barkeepers pull together long enough to draft Alex as their own combination of Wyatt Earp and Sherlock Holmes. Now all Alex has to do is stay alive long enough to fight off the Russian mob and keep himself and his friends healthy and making a profit...

The place: the flat and frosty empty country of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in western Alaska. The time: not very long ago. The hero: don't call him that. He'd hate it if you called him that. All in all, bush pilot Alex Price would rather be flying, just flying. True, he had added a private investigator's license to his commercial pilot's ticket. The state troopers can always use someone they can call "Detective" in court, and serving as an extra set of eyes and ears--or an extra gun hand--for the police made a nice change from shuttling the mail and supplies to the mines and villages throughout Bushmaster Air's territory. But that was before someone began killing a few leading citizens in the tiny villages of the delta--and the clues at the murder scenes all pointed straight to Alex's best friend. Now it's up to the bush pilot to play detective for real, before things get even worse . . .
