A Deeper Sleep

A Kate Shugak Novel

By: Dana Stabenow

Narrated by: Marguerite Gavin

Book 15: A Kate Shugak Novel

In A Deeper Sleep, her first novel since Blindfold Game, the stand-alone political thriller that made Dana Stabenow a New York Times bestseller, the author returns to the popular and award-winning Kate Shugak series.

Kate, a private investigator, has been working on a case for the Anchorage District Attorney involving the murder of a young woman by her husband, a man named Louis Deem. Deem has been the subject of investigation before, and he’s never been convicted of a crime. But Kate and her on-again, off-again lover, state trooper Jim Chopin, who arrested Deem, are convinced that this time it’s different, and he’ll finally be punished for his actions.

When the jury returns a verdict of not guilty, Kate and Jim are devastated, and like the rest of the citizens of Niniltna, Alaska, certain that a man has gotten away with murder. They can’t help but think that it’s only a matter of time before he’s in the frame for another killing.
Sure enough, a few weeks later a shooting leaves two dead in an apparent robbery. But this time Kate and Jim have a witness, and they’re not going to let Louis Deem get away again. Or
will he?

Dana Stabenow, Edgar Award®-winning author and New York Times bestselling thriller writer, delivers a gripping nail-biter about one town’s search for justice——at any cost.

Love a Kate Shugak book!

I just love these stories and how sucked in I get. On to the next!!

Settling In With Shugak And Chopin

So many things I loved about this book and author! The way the author transitioned the relationship between the two main protagonists. She lets you see what it costs each person to get authentic with his/her own character

The Degree of Law

The story is intriguing and shows how grey the law can be at times. Values and morals can war with evil. The best action is not always clear or easy.

The best!

Can’t beat Stabenow. Always a great listen! Love every word, love all the characters. The best.

Interesting story

Enjoy the history of Alaska and the Inuits. The traditions and family connection was well constructed .
