Something deadly lurks outside your door . . . First in the Alaska Wild series from the New York Times–bestselling romantic suspense author.

Alexandra Collister came to her estranged cousins’ B&B in Falls Lake, Alaska, looking for a fresh start. The surrounding forest can be harsh and unforgiving—luckily, rugged wilderness tracker Quinn Mantell offers to be her guide. Still recovering from a toxic previous relationship, Alex is wary of getting too close, but when savagely deep claw marks appear outside her bedroom window, keeping her distance from Quinn is no longer an option.

Then a body turns up exhibiting the same ruthless slash marks, and Alex knows it isn’t a coincidence. Something sinister is lurking in the woods around Falls Lake, turning Alex’s fresh start into a brutal game of survival. The murky veil of forest offers more threats than answers. Can Alex and Quinn find the killer before darkness falls for good?

“Karen Harper has absolutely outdone herself with the research necessary to make her latest book Deep in the Alaskan Woods as powerful as it is . . . a wondrous visual experience. Karen Harper invites you to join in Alex’s adventure. Use caution. Dangerous elements abound.” —Fresh Fiction

An excellent new suspense mystery from Karen Harper. She deals with domestic violence against women as well as a really good storyline that takes place in the wilds of Alaska.

I liked being whisked away to the woods, forests, waterfalls and wildlife of Alaska. The storyline kept me turning pages with wanting to see the outcome. Was a bit predictable and found the dialogue a bit stodgy at times, but I did enjoy the romp.

Karen Harper has done it again with this new series that takes place in beautiful Alaska. Her vivid descriptions make the pages come alive in this action packed story. The characters immediately felt like family. I couldn't put it down! I'm already looking forward to the next book. Hope December hurries and gets here!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not a bad story but inaccuracies were distracting
Reviewed in the United States on December 24, 2020

If you are going to write about the wilderness and wilderness survival, please get the details right!

1. Strawberries do not grow on bushes.
2. No experienced SAR person or wilderness survival expert would go into the wilderness with only a trash bag as a sleeping bag.
3. One does not make a fire by simply twirling a stick. Outdoorsmen carry matches and/or strikers for starting fires. They also gather dry kindling and tinder, not just chunks of wood.
4. It would take a very large piece of cedar bark to make a decent shelter. The shelter described was not very realistic.

Really enjoyed this book. Interesting characters who have flaws (like all of us!) and a great plot. Makes you think about what you would do in this situation. Fun, interesting read. Definitely will read more of her books.

I read the book Under the Alaska Ice first and really lined the creative writing of Karen Harper. Alaska adventures always draw me as I grew up there so when I find a story written with in the correct context its awesome. Very creative and a great mix of mystery and intrege will keep you reading into the night.

I have read other novels by this author and enjoyed them. I was very surprised by the simplicity of this story and of the characters. Lots of needless repetition, facile characters and silly plot points. Quite boring. Very disappointing.
