Darcy St. James returns to Alaska while investigating a story involving a cruise line and quickly becomes entangled in a case much more dangerous than expected. Gage McKenna is determined to keep her safe, but Darcy’s investigative instincts make standing back impossible when people begin disappearing and evidence suggests a larger conspiracy. The isolated maritime setting gives the criminals room to operate while storms and wilderness complicate every attempt to find the truth. This Alaskan Courage novel combines investigative journalism, family loyalty, faith, and romance as Darcy and Gage face both external danger and the future of their relationship.
