"This Best Selling Fire and Ice (Liam Campbell #1) Tends to SELL OUT VERY FAST! If this is a MUST HAVE product, be sure to Order Now at Amazon.co.uk to avoid disappointment!"
Alaska State Trooper Liam Campbell, demoted and reassigned to the remote bush town of Newenham, literally steps off the plane into a murder scene. Dealing with death is never simple, but when the woman leaning over the body proves to be Liam’s old flame, it’s evident that his new job is about to become much more complicated.
From Newenham’s cast of eccentric—and sometimes hair-trigger—residents, to the intricate ballet of fishing boats rushing against time to catch their limit, Stabenow captures the contagious spirit of melancholy madness that pervades America’s last frontier. Of course, small town tensions tend to simmer just beneath the surface, and murder, once done, has a tendency to happen again…

What customers say about Fire and Ice (Liam Campbell #1)?
The start of a great new series by one of the genre’s best,
Liam Cooper had it all. He loved his job as a sergeant with the Alaska State Troopers, was happily married and had a child, who he adored. However, his personal collapsed when a DUI killed his wife and son, and his career fell apart not long after that. He becomes an alcoholic in a failed attempt to stop the pain.
However, Liam gets an opportunity to start anew when he is assigned to serve as the state trooper at the fishing city of Newenham. When his plane lands, Liam is greeted with his first case: the beheaded corpse of Bob DeCreft lying on the tarmac as a nearby propeller whirls. With Bob’s years of experience and his impeccable safety record, Liam wonders if foul play has occurred. Making matters more difficult for Liam is seeing for the first time in years the first woman he ever loved (and lost), Wy Chouinard, a pilot and peer of the deceased.
FIRE AND ICE is a remarkable regional police procedural that makes the reader believe that they are traveling over the rural areas of Alaska. The story line is crisp and action-packed as Liam literally take his first step from the plane into a murder mystery that impacts the woman he still deeply loves. The characters are well drawn and likable, but fans of the Kate Shugak series already expect that from talented Dana Stabenow. Readers will want more works starring Trooper Campbell and his superb support cast in their remote, often time feral locale.

|A wonderful new series from Alaska.,
I hesitated to read “Fire and Ice,” because I am such a fan of Kate Shugak’s that I knew it would have to be a disappointment. Boy, was I mistaken! Kate’s rough edge has been replaced by humorous eccentricity from the people Liam meets, but the same fast-paced plot and love of Alaska make this book a wonderful read in its own right. I laughed out loud in spots, and I hated to finish it–it was that good. There’s no need to debate “better then” or “less than” Stanbanow’s other series. This is a very good read, and I can hardly wait for the next one in this new series.

|Very good,
I liked this book a lot. The mystery was good, the descriptions of Alaska evocative, and the characters lively. I prefer Liam to Kate Shugak, who I’ve always found to be a bit uptight.
