The Woman Who Married a Bear
1992 and 2006 -- Soho Press, Inc.

The Alaskan port city of Sitka is hardly straightlaced, but murder is uncommon. Take the killing of a Tlingit hunting guide by a farmer obeying voices from the earth's center. Although the case is long closed, the victim's aged mother wants Cecil Younger to investigate. She is not interested in the confessed killer but in the motive. The truth hinges on the meaning of a Tlingit myth. And the danger lies in finding it.
