Keenan Powell’s powerful debut mystery takes place in Anchorage, Alaska, and features recovering alcoholic Maeve Malloy. She’s a tough-on-the-outside but complex-and-vulnerable-on-the-inside criminal defense attorney who’s set on attaining justice for her client, a young homeless man accused of beating his friend to death.
Set in an Alaska far from the cruise ship scenes of glossy tourist brochures, Powell’s book provides a complex cast of characters and an honest look at the northern-most state that most of us never get to see. A big thumbs up.
