The Woman Who Married a Bear

(1992)
(The first book in the Cecil Younger series)
A novel by John Straley

State politics, family feuds, and Native American mythology all figure in the murder of Louis Victor, prominent Alaskan businessman and big-game hunter. But only a hard-drinking private eye named Cecil Younger can solve the crime and lay old ghosts to rest in this atmospheric and engrossing novel set in the Alaskan frontier.

Genre: Mystery
