Forced to abandon his Hawaiian idyll after going AWOL from work the year before, intelligence agent Conrad Slocum reluctantly returns to Alaska to investigate the murder of a fellow agent, and a terrorist threat to cruise ships. Disturbingly, his partner in the investigation is Fish and Game officer Ray Standers, who suspects Conrad was responsible for killing two men as vengeance for the death of his biological son, Marshal Stuckrath. Meanwhile Conrad's old friends, Karen and David Stuckrath return to Alaska to assist in an intriguing archeology excavation, which may push back the discovery of Alaska by Europeans more than two hundred years. FJORD LAND is a suspense novel set in the vast isolation of the Alaskan wilderness, and a fond evocation of life in the small towns of Southeast Alaska, written by an author who lived in the region for over twenty five years. FJORD LAND, the sequel to THE KABUL CONSCRIPT and CAPE DESCISION, is book three of the Conrad Slocum novel series.
