Race to Stop a Killer
The Iditarod Race, the 1100 miles dog sled race between Anchorage and Nome, is a hard a grueling endurance event, but it has never been deadly for humans - until now. First, someone falls asleep on his sled and winds up crashing into a tree. State trooper Alex Jensen is brought in to figure out what happened, but before he can make a complete determination, another body turns up dead. He takes the offer of help from musher Jessie Arnold willingly. But will that be enough to keep anyone else from dying?

I read this book on my recent Alaskan cruise, and I think that helped me get into the story. I found all the facts about the race and the various setting fascinating. Outside a couple of characters, I had trouble keeping everyone straight, but I really did care for Jessie and Alex. I did find some of Alex’s behavior unrealistic, but I do get the dramatic tension it was creating. The race takes over from the mystery as the main driver of the plot at times, but I got caught up in the action and the climax was a page turner. Overall, I enjoyed this one, and book two came home from my trip with me as a souvenir. Hopefully, I can get to it soon.

Love craft Country is a great mixture of sci - fi, horror and drama. Historical attitudes help to purvey the themes of sexuality, gender, class and race very well.

Creative and Realistically Horrific
So many people can't get past the issue of race which is a key element in this movie. But looking at the bigger picture...this could be a reality for ANYONE regardless of race or religion. Forget traditional slavery. That's terrifying in it's own way. But this movie proposes a realistic idea of society that will keep you up at night to avoid bigger nightmares that Freddy, Jason, or Michael ever caused.
